   • Transfer to Memphis, which was founded by King Menes and was the capital of Old Egypt during the Old Kingdom. It was considered a center of rule and culture for over 3000 years as the first capital of Egypt. The city reached a peak of prestige under the 6th dynasty as a center for the worship of Ptah, the god of creation and artworks. The alabaster sphinx that guards the Temple of Ptah memorialises the city’s former power and prestige. The Memphis triad, consisting of the creator god Ptah, his consort Sekhmet, and their son Nefertem, formed the main focus of worship in the city. Memphis declined briefly after the 18th dynasty with the rise of Thebes and the New Kingdom. It was revived under the Persians before falling firmly into second place following the foundation of Alexandria. Also, see the Statue of Ramses II.
