“Egyptian language (medu netjer) must be learned technically, because this language is the only key to understanding KMT from an intrinsic paradigm. Positive discussion about KMT is no longer sufficient if our aim is to advance the discipline with sound scholarship. In order for us to have a deep and exciting dialogue with KMT it is necessary for us to master the Egyptian language. This requirement is imperative, for without it we have no beginning.” – Tata Théophile Obenga
