In the Honor of
ImhoteP
Imhotep, the world's first multi-genius, was called Imouthes in Greece and
deified as Aesculapius, the Greek god of Medicine. Today, most doctors are aware of the Hippocratic Oath and its pledge referencing the Proverb-maker, Imhotep.
Loosely translated, He who Cometh in Peace, Imhotep was a Dentist, Chief Physician and Grand Vizier (Prime Minister) to King Zoser, the Egyptian Pharoah in the 3rd Dynasty (5345-5307) B.C. But, he was more than just a noble statesman and doctor. Imhotep was also an astronomer, mathematician, engineer, poet, musician, philosopher, and the architect who designed and constructed the first stone building, the step pyramid of Sakkara near Cairo, Egypt, defining architecture for the world.
