Some believe that Imhotep was Joseph, the son of Isaac.

I like that Egyptians had electric lights installed on the floors of their tombs. That way, when you wandered around as a mummy, you wouldn't get lost in the dark among the many corridors. Though I suppose after a few thousand years of this, you'd know them pretty well anyway.

i’m surprised how good of a shape all of those steel I-beams are after thousands of years ... it’s almost as if they’d just been painted a few weeks earlier ...

but his body remains in the nearby Step Pyramid....


The story directly contradicts that opening statement : “There is a burial chamber in the tomb but it is seen as too small to have been anything more than symbolic.” Charlotte Edwards evidently didn’t actually proof read her own story. No actual bodies have been found in any Pyramid ; that’s a 19th century conceit, now become consensus thinking and no longer science.
