Sorry Elvis
Estimated time since The Big Bang.....some 13.5 billion years....but that only "traces light" back to its origins as it "sprang" into existence.
What happened before that is unknowable given what we know today.
Age of planet Earth ...4.5 billion (maybe you slipped a period)
First tool using bipeds....Australopithecus...3.3 Million years ago....Lomekwian Stone Tools found in Kenya
Age of Homo sapien....between 200k and 300k years...traced back to a common female ancestor via Mitochondrial DNA
If writing ever becomes work I think I'm going to have to stop
