Please check my sentences.

I would like to go back in time as far back as the era of dinosaurs.

Change 'era' to 'age'.

 

[Tarheel]

I would probably use "the" before "dinosaurs". Otherwise, I am fine with that sentence. (Maybe if I was a paleontologist I would be pickier, but I am not one.)

I'd shorten it to "I'd like to go back to the time of the dinosaurs". It's clear that you're talking about going back in time.

 

[tufguy]

Change 'era' to 'age'.

Can we use 'age' even if we are talking about a person like "Alexander"?

 

[emsr2d2]

Can we use 'age' even if we are talking about a person like "Alexander"?

As always, please give us a complete example sentence.

[emsr2d2]

I'd like to go back to the time of Alexander.

You'll have to be more specific. There have been millions of people called Alexander throughout history.

Now your sentence is correct.

@tufguy You are remarkably consistent.
