Mostly before this time period and more so in other ares of the world.
Kinda strange that our written history is based on Biblical accounts and anytime there is evidence to the contrary, it is quickly dismissed by a multitude of methods.
But there is enough evidence out there right now for everyone to take a new look about the knowledge and technical capability from about 3500bc to 300ad.

Much of the skew in modern written history comes from 2 areas.
When the Hebrews were in Babylon and while/after 'Alexander the Great' came to power.
The name Jesus was a Greek name for the people of the time to understand who he was in a way their pagan understanding could tolerate as they began to transition to Christianity. Because it was pronounced 'gee-zeus' and means 'Hail Zeus' in Greek as there was no "J" /'jee' pronunciation in the original language. And he is also shown with the sun in the background or behind his head because that was the symbolic of Zeus.
Things that have lasted to this day.

Just a example.
History is a tough nut to crack and you have to put yourself in the mindset of the time by understanding what they knew and when they knew it. People and their cultures and religions and technology's do not always migrate together in the same direction.
Good points we'll never really know we only have the writings and drawing of various artist etc. a lot of history is a mystery really.
