It is also considered as eukaryotic because it is origin for eukaryotic.

Prokaryotic cells are classified into two domains.

1. Archaea.
2. Eubacteria.

The Archaea have unique characteristics but share its features with Eubacteria & with 3rd domain, Eukarya, too.

That's why Archaea is considered to be the oldest eukaryotic organisms.

Archaea are prokaryotes. However Archaea have characteristics of both prokaryotic and eukaryotic characters. Hence it seems to be the oldest eukaryotes or forerunners of eukaryotes.

Why it is the oldest Eukaryote? Archaea is a Prokaryotic along with bacteria. Eukaryotes are FUNGI/ANIMALS.

Since Archaea belong to kingdom of single microorganism, with no cell nucleus, their are considered to be the oldest prokaryotic organisms not eukaryotes.

Grypania spiralis, multi cellular algae was the oldest eukaryote.
