Kemetism refers to the religious and cultural practices of ancient Egypt and its revival in modern times. It is also known as Kemeticism, Kemetic Orthodoxy, and Neterism. Other synonyms include Egyptian revivalism, Nile Valley religion, and Ancient Egyptian religion. Kemetism is a combination of modern interpretations and ancient practices and has gained popularity among individuals seeking to connect with the African diaspora and reclaim their roots. Its core beliefs revolve around reverence for the divine, the importance of Ma'at (balance and order), and the worship of Neteru (gods and goddesses). The term "Kemetism" comes from the ancient Egyptian name for their land, Kemet, which means "black land."".
