		The first historically documented pyramid is attributed to the architect Imhotep, who in constructing a tomb for the pharaoh Djozer, first conceived the notion of stacking a number of mastabas on top of each other — thereby creating an edifice comprised of a number of steps that decreased in size towards its apex.

		, who in constructing what Egyptologists believe to be a tomb for the pharaoh Djozer, it is theorized first conceived the notion of stacking a number of mastabas on top of each other — thereby creating an edifice comprised of a number of steps that decreased in size towards its apex.
		Given Egyptologists also credit Djozer with the construction of the impressive "Bent" and "Red" pyramids, it is not understood why if Egyptian pyramids were built as "tombs and tombs only" as Egyptologists believe it would be necessary for one pharoah to have constructed three.
		The most prolific pyramid-building phase coincided with the greatest degree of absolutist pharaonic rule, during the early part of the Old Kingdom.

		The Djozer pyramid is called the worlds oldest stone monument although that sounds a bit unreasonable.
		My picture on the secret picture page was taken on the enclosure wall of the Djozer compound with the Giza pyramids in the background.

		These velocity tomograms were used to evaluate archaeological sites and look for tunnels.
		To test our system, we collected seismic data at a site at Saqqarra, Egypt, near Djozer’s Step Pyramid where we anticipated strong, lateral variation of seismic velocities due to the presence of subsurface archaeological features.
		Here we obtained velocity images of what we suspect is a large manmade feature in the subsurface.
