The Step Pyramid of King Zoser, III Dynasty, Old Kingdom, ca. 2590 B.C., The first pyramid of Egypt, the Step Pyramid of Djoser is unique in its own way. Not only is the Step Pyramid at Saqqara considered the earliest colossal stone building in Egypt, but it is also recognized to be the earliest large-scale cut stone construction. Believed to have been built during ancient Egypt’s Third Dynasty circa 2667–2648 BC, the revolutionary monument was actually constructed a few hundred years after ancient civilizations half-way around the world in America had already succeeded in building pyramids. #iregipto #egyptpassion #steppyramids #djoser #dynasty #egypt https://www.instagram.com/p/B3rkyOfngIp/?igshid=krue2graf002
