egyptian architect credited with building the step pyramid at saggara

Hi, Imhotep designed and built a mass of passageways and chambers under the pyramid, various mortuary buildings, chapels and courts all surrounded by a stone wall a mile long and 10m high. Imhotep had made a name for himself as the greatest architect and later generations raised him to the level of a demigod. There are numerous pyramids in Egypt today but amazingly the giant ones are the earliest and best built. Below is a website with the info on the architect. If you need anything else just ask.
