Yes, I did know the approximate dates of the pyramids having been built. Egypt itself was established from groups of other fairly civilised people coming together for about another millenium BC. It's where they came from that things start getting patchy.
I'm not sure why you think this is against what mainstream history has to say. Most museums and books are in agreement.
History is a complex subject because the further back you go the less evidence there is. Most academic historians are very good at presenting the facts they discover without embelishment these days.
Most problems come from the evidence itself - that which survives is generally the evidence of those with power at the time. The people they conquered, their beliefs and histories were often erased or recorded as being false, evil or superstition. It still happens today - ethnic cleansing, the western view belittles the eastern and so on.
It is not historians who lie to you, but the sad fact that human history is filled with shameful moments.

I didn't know about Egypt if i do agree with your question!
I live in the south of Ireland (Eire) Where history books, if you read and compare them from one author to another vary greatly on many topics! For instance de Valeira and Michael Collins! Depending if the author was pro de Valeire or pro Michael Collins then you get a very different view on these men!
I think history can be a tendenciou subject because too open to people's interpretations/ perceptions of an event, a person/politics or whatever. Also history has been known to be doctored so as to suit a regime, group of individuals, if not the subject and/or reader!
It's sad though! History is a precious subject, and should be treated with all impartiality!

Obviously your question is not concerned with all of history, just a tiny segment relating to the building of the pyramids and the time frame surrounding the arrival of the Israelites in that area. So what is your point? What are you trying to say?

The whole idea of "correct" history is quite an abstract concept.
Only archeological geological evidence of the age of something can be really correct.
Any document citing anything... aren't lies as old as mankind?
History is so full of wars, & in peace time winners were rulers, & the history is always written by the winner's side...

No. I do not agree. Some histories are motivated but it does not get peoples support unless based on facts. These days the archeological findings tested by carbon dating and other tests, confirm to the historical facts. Otherwise discarded as mere conjuctures.

Historians assume ,they are like confused cockroaches ,coz they just want to tell people lies.
Like THERA a Greek island they said it was inhabited ,but when the volcano erupted they Neva found anybody there except empty houses.

History is only ever written by the winners, not necessarily by the 'good guys'.
Too many people think what they are told by the media is the 'gospel truth'. Has everyone forgotten H.G.Wells' 'War of the Worlds'?

His arrogance is devoid of equivalent. He suggested he grow to be going to symbolize each and all of the yank human beings. of course no longer genuine. He additionally suggested he grow to be going to be a uniter. Even his maximum ardent followers ought to confess that he has performed something yet unite. He has it in his capability to pour water on the flames of hatred that have erupted in this united states between the left and the main suitable suited, yet as a replace, he followers the flame. i for my section think of he sat in that church in Chicago too long and soaked up a super variety of hatred and not God's message of affection, peace, and charm. it fairly is as much as each and each human beings to no longer provide into his hatred or the those of his followers.

Well im not so sure about that. What are your sources. I need to see them to believe so myself. I dont think history writers are fooling us because there is hardly any censorship these days.
