THE PYRAMID OF SAKKARA

This pyramid was built in the 28th century BC by the architect Imhotep for his Pharaoh Zoser.  It's the oldest of Egypt's pyramids.  For more informationhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyramid_of_Djoser.  I remember the name Imhotep from the Mummy movies.  Here's more info on him.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imhotep

 Up close and personal with ancient history.  I touched something that was almost 5,000 years old.
