A community-maintained tertiary reference on Kemetism, directly examined. Its strength is naming two distinct founding lines with a founder and a decade each rather than treating modern Kemetic practice as one movement; its limit is a Wikipedia community article rather than a new religious movements monograph, which is why it sits at reliability tier three.
