Recorded 2022. Following the reign of Netjerykhet Djoser, the next generation would attempt to surpass his monuments. King Sekhem-khet tried, but failed, to achieve this. In this episode, we fill a lesser-known gap in the history of ancient Egypt's pyramids. At the same time, we tell the tale of a renowned archaeologist, Mohamed Zakariah Goneim, whose work and influence deserve greater recognition... Episode details: Date: c. 2670 — 2630 BCE Kings: Netjerykhet (Djoser); Sekhem-khet; Kha-ba. Logo: The entrance to Sekhemkhet's pyramid at Saqqara. See more at wikimedia.
