KM.t Kemet Kheme: just where is it ???

[Tukuler al~Takruri]

People commonly use Kemet, or some variant, to refer
to "Ancient Egypt" from Aswan to the Delta, sometimes
also the annexed territories southward of Aswan, east
toward the Red Sea, and the western oases.

The Book of Portals names a KM.t[nwt] composed
of Rt Rmt and Nhhsw inhabiting ancient Egypt and
ancient Sudan respectively, i.e., dwellers all along the
length of the entire Nile Valley known to its author(s).

Is Kemet only Ta Mery (the Beloved) a.k.a T3Wy (the Two Lands),
namely TaShemaw ("upper" Egypt) and Ta Mehhw ("lower" Egypt)?
Or does Kemet include all

• Qesh (Kush)
  • "Khartoum"
    
  • Yam
    • Kerma
      
    • Sai
  • Tereres
    
  • Mekher

• Kenset
  • Irtet
    
  • Sethu
    
  • Wawat

• Ynty

• Ta Seti

• Ta Meri
  • TaWy
    • Ta Shem`w
      
    • Ta Mehhw
      
  • Ta Wer

All those drank from the Nile, maybe that was poetic and a wish for unity an ideal perhaps,but the politics would seems to indicate otherwise unless there was boots on the ground during KMT's empire phase or Kush's empire phase.

The Book of Gates divides humans in the Afterlife World
into two sets, KM.t.nwt and DSHR.t.nwt. Admittedly the
book only appears for a short while in the millenia of AE's
existance and then only in/on pharaonic tombs/sarcophagi.

If Nehesu aren't of KM.t.nwt then they must belong to the
DSHR.t.nwt along with the Aamu and Tjemehu. Only thing
is that the Nehesu are black skinned and dshr means red
whereas km means black.

But words do have secondary, tertiary, and further meanings.
So KM.t.nwt's primary meaning is "Egypt," but maybe only in
it's specific BoG context it has a secondary meaning of "Black
community?"

An exhaustive listing of KM.t.nwt within texts would be incisive.
