Imhotep is credited with designing and building the first pyramid in Egypt, the Step Pyramid of Djoser, located in Saqqara. He was an architect, priest, and physician during the Third Dynasty of the Old Kingdom, around 2630 BCE. Imhotep's innovative design marked a significant advancement in Egyptian architecture, transitioning from simple mastabas to the more complex pyramid structure. His contributions earned him a legendary status, and he was later deified as a god of wisdom and medicine.
