From the pectoral of Pharaoh Ramses II, dating back to the 19th Dynasty, to the relief depicting glass blowers in the Mastaba of Kaemrehu from the Old Kingdom era, Saqqara offers glimpses into Egypt's rich past. The Mastaba of Nhnumhotep and Niankhkhnum unveils royal servants frozen in time, their presence eternally captured on stone. Tiles from Djoser's step pyramid showcase intricate craftsmanship with faience dating back to 2667-2648 BC.
