In short, there are a number of reasons for believing that [[Joseph and Imhotep]] were the same person. If Joseph was Imhotep, this would mean that [[Netjerikhet]] was the [[Pharaoh Djoser (Netjerikhet) was the Pharaoh of Joseph|Pharaoh of Joseph]] and this would explain why he subsequently came to be know as [[Pharaoh Djoser (Netjerikhet) was the Pharaoh of Joseph|Djoser]] (or Zozer in Greek). | '''In short, there are a number of reasons for believing that [[Joseph and Imhotep]] were the same person.

The 12th dynasty was characterized by the prolific use of mud bricks to construct pyramids and structures like the Labyrinth. Given that the Exodus took place in the 13th dynasty and the Israelites were slaves in Egypt for the 400yrs that preceded the Exodus, It is quite likely that the Israelites made the mud bricks for the 12th dynasty pyramids and the Labyrinth and {{Amenemhet III]] was Moses's Pharaoh. The Israelites numbered around 2 million at the time and so it was quite feasible for them to have made the enormous numbers of bricks that went into these structures over a 200 yr period. It also explains why no more pyramids were constructed after the Exodus. | ||
