The ancient Egyptian civilization succeeded in the Nile River Valley, where it had all the ingredients for agriculture, such as fertile soil, water, and a temperate climate. With the availability of the necessary materials, the authorities extracted many minerals found in the valley and the desert areas surrounding it, and wrote and developed an independent writing system in them, and organized collective construction and agricultural projects, in addition to trade with the areas surrounding Egypt, and strengthening the military forces of the military defense was necessary to resist the enemies of the outside, and confirm Domination of the Pharaonic families over the country.
The old state begins with the beginning of the third family, but in terms of a sequence of pure events you find that the transition from the second family to the third family took place without any separation or interruption.

The most prominent pharaohs of this family were its founder, Pharaoh Zoser, whose name was codified in red ink in the historical papyrus of Turin to distinguish it from other rulers, as the state was marked by its stability and the harmony of its southern and northern sides, and its mention continued even after the end of the Pharaohs rule in the Ptolemaic era.
The most important characteristic of this stage is the construction of the pyramids, so it was known as the “Builders of the Pyramids” era, where the pharaoh ordered a bridge to build a funerary group for him in Saqqara after he had built his own cemetery in the way of his predecessors in the form of a large mastaba (95 x 50 meters, a height of 10 meters) He instructed his minister, Amihotep, to build the Saqqara Cemetery, which is one of the most important monuments that documented the development of the construction of the Pharaonic tombs.
