The Famine Stela is an inscription written in Egyptian hieroglyphs located on Sehel Island in the Nile near Aswan in Egypt, which tells of a seven-year period of drought and famine during the reign of pharaoh Djoser of the Third Dynasty.
The story told on the stela is set in the 18th year of the reign of Djoser.
The text describes how the king is upset and worried as the land has been in the grip of a drought and famine for seven years, during which time the Nile has not flooded the farmlands.
The text also describes how the Egyptians are suffering as a result of the drought and that they are desperate and breaking the laws of the land.
These text obviously share many parallels with Josephs time in Egypt.
