  • Tip Rating:
  • Visit The Step Pyramid of Sakkara, Giza

    The Step Pyramid of Zoser at Saqqara, south of Gîza, is Egypt's first pyramid. Zoser was the most famous ruler of Dynasty III (2700-2625 BC) and inaugurated the 'Age of the Pyramids'. Standing about 180 feet tall, it appears that the first pyramid was constructed as if building six mastabas on top of each other. Zoser's pyramid, however, was constructed of of limestone rather than the mud brick and wood of the mastabas, a great innovation. Imhotep, the architect, later became the god of medicine
