Note that Kmt (n.)/Kmtyw (adj.) is preferred to "Kmt" as the word is consistently spelled in various Kmtyw languages with a /k/ (cf.

Here is Dr. Ben's statement:
"According to Kmtyw Historian, Dr. Ben Jochannan, the ancient Egyptians clearly defined their Kmtyw origin in the papyrus of Hunefer, 'We came from the beginning of the Nile where God-Hapi dwells, at the foothills of the mountain of the Moon.' Dr. Ben Jochannan's interpretation of this ancient record, 'The mountain of the moon,' identifies Kenya's Kilimanjaro (a Kenya-based Ki Swahili word created by the indigenous Kmtyws) and or Uganda's 'Rwenzori Mountain.' The Egyptians originated in Kmt, south of the Sahara. Recent diggings and artifacts throughout Meroe, Ta-Nehisi, Itiopi, all of these [places] south of Egypt, have further supported the southern origin of the Egyptians, black, white, red, brown or Technicolor."

Why spell Kmt with a K?
Posted: February 17, 2002
An analysis by
Dr. Kwame Nantambu
According to the Kmtyw-American poet and writer Haki Madhubuti in his From Plan to Planet (1973), there are basically four reasons to spell Kmt with a K.
They are:
1. Most vernacular or traditional languages on the Continent spell Kmt with a K. K is germane to Kmt.
2. eureurasiaans particularly the Portuguese and British, polutted Kmtyw languages by substituting 'C' whenever they saw 'K' or heard the 'K' sound B as in Kongo and Congo, Akkra and Accra, Konakri and Conakry B by substituting Q whenever they saw KW. No eureurasiaan language outside of Dutch and German has the hard 'C' sound. Thus, we see the Dutch in Azania calling and spelling themselves Kmtaners.
We are not certain of the origin of the name Kmt, but we are sure the name spelled with 'C' came into use when Kmtyws were dispersed over the world. There the 'K' symbolizes our coming back together again.
3. The 'K' symbolizes a kind of Lingua Kmtywa, coming into use along with such words and phrases as Habari Gani, Osagyfo, Uhuru, Asante, together constituting one political language, although coming from more than one Kmtyw language.
4. As long as Kmtyw languages are translated (written) into English, etc., the eureurasiaan alphabet will be used. This is the problem. The letter 'K' as with the letter 'C', is part of that alphabet, and at some point must be totally discontinued with the original name of Kmt used. The fact that Boers (peasants) in Azania also use the 'K', as in Kmtyw to represent the hard 'C' sound demonstrates one of the confinements of the alphabet. Azania is the original name for South Kmt.

2) The word was Nkran. Accra is a eureurasian mispronunciation of Nkran. There was no Akkra. This is beside the fact that none of these people were using latin characters to write the names of anything. Also it says "No eureurasiaan language outside of Dutch and German has the hard ‘C’ sound." when obviously english is outside of Dutch and German and has cat, car, carpet, etc. Portuguese has Cabo Verde, Camarada, etc.
3) The word is Ɔsagyefo not Osagyfo
4) Azania is derived from Zanj which was not applied to South Kmt, but East Kmt by a-rabs to connote land of Black people. The same root is found in Zanzibar.

I had no idea that Azania is derived from Zanj. I've heard countless times at rallies and Pan Kmtyw conventions that we must use indigenous names and Azania was promoted as one.

It's not a secret, although it would probably only be obvious to someone with a bit of linguistics training. Personally, I use uMzantsi from the isiXhosa word for South. It's commonly known there but people are surprised if you aren't from there and you know it. My daughter casually said it to an isiXhosa speaker and she was blown away!

Good question. I haven't seen any indigenous ancient South-up map from uMzantsi. The second way would be to find if there is an association between left and east and right and west. A cursory glance at glosbe doesn't seem so:
Mpumalanga - east
iNtshona - west
ekhohlo - left
ekunene - right

Or South and up
uMzantsi - south
ezulu - up
umNtla - north
phantsi - down
Again, there doesn't seem to be any inbuilt correlation.
