The Architect of the Pyramids
http://www.sullivanet.com/mummy/historical-imhotep.htmhttp://ipoaa.com/imhotep_true_father_medicine.htm
He was the world's first named architect who built Egypt's first pyramid,
is often recognized as the world's first doctor, a priest,. scribe, sage, poet, astrologer, and a vizier and chief minister,
though this role is unclear, to Djoser (reigned 2630–2611 BC), the second king of Egypt's third dynasty. He may have lived under as many as four kings.
An inscription on one of that kings statues gives us Imhotep's titles as the "chancellor of the king of lower Egypt", the "first one under the king", the "administrator of the great mansion", the "hereditary Noble", the "high priest of Heliopolis", the "chief sculptor", and finally the "chief carpenter".

Construction of Pyramids:
No records telling of construction methods, and no scholarly agreement on how they were constructed.
Construction provided work for a community for a lifetime.
We should not see the pyramids as the fruit of slave labour
