It would have been ideal for storing grain and most likely, it was used for this purpose. Owing to the remarkable similarities between the designer of the Step Pyramid and Joseph of the Bible, it is likely that the they were one in the same person. As the Egyptian dates are not reliable, the discrepancy between Biblical and Egyptian dates should not be considered a major objection to matching of Joseph with Imhotep (the sage who designed the Step Pyramid complex for Pharaoh Zozer of the third dynasty).
