Historical FiguresImhotep
PRIME MINISTER AND ARCHITECT
Imhotep is described in the UB as the prime minister who designed and built the first stone pyramid in Egypt. He represents the peak of Andite-influenced Egyptian civilization -- a polymath who was simultaneously architect, physician, administrator, and sage. His step pyramid at Saqqara was the first monumental stone structure in history, launching the architectural tradition that would produce the Great Pyramids.
