Synopsis

At the dawn of Egyptian civilization, Imhotep built the first pyramid, became legendary as a physician and governed the greatest state on earth. He is one of the most important figures in all of ancient history -- a man historians have called the world's "first known genius." For some archaeologists, Imhotep's lost burial site has been the Holy Grail of Egyptology. Polish archaeologist Karol Mysliwiec may have found his burial site beneath the sands of Saqqara, Egypt's fabled city of the dead.
