In the last episode, we discussed the first Pharaohs and ended with little known Dynasty II. Pharaoh Khasekhemwy, the last Pharaoh of the 2nd Dynasty, united Egypt once more and was succeeded by his son, Pharaoh Djoser. We focus on this king, how he constructed the first step pyramid in Ancient Egypt, and follow the rise of the Old Kingdom.
