The Saqqara Pyramid, also known as the Step Pyramid of Djoser, is a significant archaeological site located in Saqqara, Egypt. It was constructed during the 27th century BCE for the burial of Pharaoh Djoser by his architect, Imhotep. This pyramid is renowned for being the earliest colossal stone building in Egypt and marks a pivotal development in ancient Egyptian pyramid construction. Unlike the later smooth-sided pyramids, the Step Pyramid consists of six mastabas (rectangular structures) stacked upon one another, creating its distinctive stepped appearance. It is part of a larger mortuary complex that includes courtyards, temples, and shrines, highlighting the sophistication and architectural innovation of the period.
The Pyramid of Teti at Saqqara is the burial place of Pharaoh Teti, the first ruler of Egypt’s Sixth Dynasty (circa 2345–2323 BCE). This pyramid, though smaller and less imposing than some of its predecessors, is significant for its historical and architectural features. Inside, it contains a series of passages and chambers adorned with Pyramid Texts, the oldest known religious texts in the world, which were meant to guide the pharaoh in the afterlife. The pyramid is part of a larger mortuary complex, including a temple and subsidiary pyramids, which offer insights into the funerary practices and artistic achievements of ancient Egypt during this period.
The Carpet School in Saqqara is an educational institution dedicated to preserving and teaching the traditional art of Egyptian carpet weaving. Located near the ancient Saqqara necropolis, the school offers visitors a glimpse into the intricate processes involved in creating handmade carpets and tapestries. Students and skilled artisans demonstrate various weaving techniques, showcasing their craftsmanship and the vibrant designs that characterize Egyptian carpets. The Carpet School not only serves as a center for learning and cultural preservation but also provides an opportunity for visitors to purchase high-quality, handcrafted carpets directly from the source.
The pyramid of Teti is a smooth-sided pyramid situated in the pyramid field at Saqqara in Egypt. It is the second known pyramid containing pyramid texts.
Unas built his pyramid between the complexes of Sekhemket and Djoser, in North Saqqara. Anchored to the valley temple at a nearby lake, a long causeway was constructed to provide access to the pyramid site.
The Mastaba of Ti is one of the most important archaeological sites of Saqqara. The mastaba was discovered by Auguste Mariette.
The mastaba contains two serdabs. The walls of the tomb show various scenes of everyday life.
