Description

AIP Director Larry Pahl hiked to the Famine Stela near Elephantine Island in Egypt, near the Nile's first cataract, and visited Sohel Island. The Famine stela is a carved stone record of a 7 year famine that took place during the time of Pharaoh Djoser.  This has led some researchers to suggest a connection between the vizier of Pharaoh Djoser, Imhotep, and the biblical figure Joseph.  This is the topic of today's episode.
