“Egypt plans to make a documentary film of Pyramid of Djoser, Egypt’s first step pyramid, using a three-dimensional technique to be a reference to all archaeologists,” Egyptian Culture Minister Farouk Hosni said Monday 9/6/2008.

The film will display a perspective image of the pyramid, located in Sakkara, to help archaeologists know the exact condition of each step and stone pieces, the Minister said. The four-week project will be carried out by the Supreme Council of Antiquities in cooperation with a Japanese-American mission, Hosni said.

The project comes as part of celebrations of making 2008 the Year of Science between Japan and Egypt.
