Imhotep's legacy
3 years, 11 monthsDjoser’s Step Pyramid at Sakkara is one of the most important archeological sites in all of Egypt. While it may not be as famous as the Giza Pyramids, this structure predates them and it is vital to archeologists’ understanding of the development of pyramid construction. The Step Pyramid was built in the 27th century BC during the 3rd dynasty rule of Djoser.
