I think some scholarly study of Egyptian pyramid suggest application of pythagorean theorem during surveying and construction. If that is valid it would push back knowledge of pythagorean theorem another 1000 years.
it seems more and more of other geometric advancements previously attributed to the the classical and hellenistic greeks were in fact in circulation in the middle east at least a thousand years earlier.
