Imhotep was the vizier of Pharaoh Djoser of the 3rd dynasty. He was responsible for designing the Step Pyramid Complex at Saqqara. The complex not only contains the Step Pyramid which can be seen from afar, it contains many buildings which are part of the walls that surround the Step Pyramid. Within the walls are a number of open pits which are interconnected at the bottom and accessible from an ajoining pit that has stairs leading down to the bottom. These pits are very similar to others found in many other cities in Egypt from the same time period used to store grain | Imhotep was the vizier of Pharaoh Djoser of the 3rd dynasty.

The "[[Famine stele]]", found near the first cataract of the Nile tells the story of Djoser's dream and how [[Pharaoh Djoser]] asked Imhotep to help save Egypt from a coming seven year famine. It mentions seven meagre years and seven years of plenty. It has all the components of the Biblical story of Joseph, except for the fact that in the story of Joseph the seven years of famine would come ''after'' the seven years of plenty. Also that Imhotep actually stopped the famine by appealing to the god of Khnum, which some scholars believe is a reference to building up a structure to capture water for stopping the famine. | The "[[Famine stele]]", found near the first cataract of the Nile tells the story of Djoser's dream and how [[Pharaoh Djoser]] asked Imhotep to help save Egypt from a coming seven year famine.
