Though sadly for Confucius you do not get the age of a woman you feel, regardless of her age.
And I am rather sure that is a good thing, the first woman anyone will feel is likely to be his/her mother, being born at her age would be problematic. Especially since this mother would have gotten the age of her mother at her birth!
And since after being born you need to find someone to mate with before you can get pregnant and a pregnancy tends to last 9 months you would be at least 9 months older at birth then your mother was at hers. We would surely become extinct rather fast. Our species would have lasted only one generation!
We have a marvellous area in the southern central desert : the ( Matthew ) Flinders Ranges. This contains an amazing landform called Wilpena Pound which sort of looks like a god's thumb print :
Even older again though is the Ediacara Hills region nearby, where there are Precambrian fossils from approx 600 million years ago, these being at the bottom of a sea at that time. So obviously this is an area of outstanding geological stability. One can stand on structures that have been undisturbed for over half a billion years. Man's pretensions are nothing .....

That big bang a while ago, that one was old! Though you can still see its effects, or so they say. I wasn't around to hear or see it bang...
