Cleopatra lived closer in time to the Moon landing than to the building of the Great Pyramid of Giza.
The pyramid was raised around 2560 BC. Cleopatra was born in 69 BC. Between the two lie some 2,500 years. Between Cleopatra and the 1969 Moon landing, about 2,000.
When she strolled through Egypt, the pyramids were already ancient ruins — older to her than she is to us.
