If the Golarion year is equivalent to ours, and we take the first recorded mention of baba yaga as say, fifty years before she was born... then...
Somewhere in the 37th century.
EDIT: Also, thank you for the interesting though experiment.
Actually I need to correct myself, BCE is another way of saying Before common Era, or in this case, before the birth if christ, (if you believe in christianity) As such, using her information, she was born 75 years before jesus, which makes my earlier calculations, VERY wrong.
It is in fact, 1848. Provided there isn't a time differential between the two worlds. And of course if you accept BCE in golarion setting as referring to earth time.
You really can't use a world with powerful magical items and liken it to our own, we HAD to find easier ways of doing things because we don't have the options they do, but I'd say, if I was forced too, that they're around the pirates age. At least in technological development.
So, IIRC, every year in Golarion correlates to a year in our time. From Reign of Winter, we know that 4713 AR is 2013. So that makes this year 4714 AR.
So finding the year of 4643 is then simple math. It's 71 years in the past, making 4643 equivalent to 1943.

Rasputin Must Die! sorta argues strongly against this, starting in 4713 AR and heading to 1918 AD or so Russia with no real time travel implications...so, while the years advance at the rate ours do, there appears to be a 95 year gap there.
Which makes the 1848 date stated above likely accurate.
EDIT: Ninja'd.
I just worked from Baba yaga's birthdate as listed. Being her birthdate is 2720 AR, 75 BCE We just take 4643 minus 2720 equals 1923 minus 75 for 1848.
I guess I needed to show my work. Any key differences in timing that are contradictory, I'd put up to extremely small variances in the rate time flows.

Therefore, this year (2014) is 4809 AR.
When Aroden was raising the Starstone and founding Absalom, Stonehenge was being built. Egypt (at the time in the Second Dynasty) wouldn't start building pyramids until a century later.

If you're going to use Common Era instead of BC/AD, shouldn't you be consistent and use eg 'Common Reckoning' instead of 'Aroden Reckoning'? :p

Why does the Foreword say 4713 =2013 then? Or did I read that wrong?
So in what Golarion year did NASA launch the last of America's deep space probes?
...It just occurred to me. Osirion was founded in -3470 AR. That's 6265 BC, PF Earth reckoning. That's the time frame of Catalhoyuk, and the 8.2 kiloyear event.
Dynastic Egypt wouldn't be founded for another 3,000 years. Ra, Osiris, and all the old Osiriani gods didn't migrate to Golarion from Earth. They spread to Earth from Golarion.
ETA: Highhelm was founded around the same time as Dynastic Egypt. Osirion was in the middle of its Second Age. Thuvia had been ceded from Osirion about 500 years before.

They're referring to the fact that Golarion's calendar advances as ours does (it's 4714 in Golarion at the moment, for example), making things that explicitly occur in 4713 on Golarion basically need to be released in 2013. It's not a statement of IC equivalence, but OOC.

Yep. James Jacobs explicitly noted this in some other thread (maybe the thread on the Blog Post featuring the Gods or the Ask James Jacobs thread) already.

The article on the Osiriani gods confirms this.
Where is this article?

Yup! :)
So in what Golarion year did NASA launch the last of America's deep space probes?
I see what you did there...
