Cleopatra lived closer to the release of the first iPhone than she did to the building of the pyramids of Giza.
As INSIDER's Megan Willett explained, the pyramids of Giza were built between 2550 B.C. and 2490 B.C, by historians' estimates. About 2421 years later in 69 B.C., Cleopatra, the last active Pharaoh of Ancient Egypt, was born. She died at the age of 39 in 30 B.C.
Apple cofounder and then-CEO Steve Jobs debuted the first iPhone in 2007, only 2037 years after Cleopatra's death.
