Saqqara, known also as Sakkara or Saccara, is a vast necropolis in Egypt that served as the burial ground for the ancient capital, Memphis. It is home to the oldest complete stone building complex known in history, the Pyramid of Djoser, which dates back to the Third Dynasty. This site is not just a collection of pyramids; it includes mastabas, temples, and tombs spanning over 3,000 years of Egyptian history, reflecting the grandeur and complexity of ancient Egyptian civilization.
