The Kebtah Logo is a Kemetic symbol that comes from the temple culture of the Nile Valley. The symbol is called the Djed and it is associated with stability, durability, strength and staying power. In Kemetic spiritual education, it is also associated with the backbone of the God Wsr or Osiris who is known throughout many prehistoric cultures for dignifying humanity by educating about agriculture, astronomy, time-keeping, healing, mathematics, government, and other fields, which became the origins of indigenous civilization.
These traditions built the Nile Valley civilizations and were passed to the other continents of this planet, contributing to humanity’s ancient indigenous civilizations. Many of these civilizations looked to the Nile Valley’s Pharaonic seat as their spiritual authority.
Kebtah, like the djed logo, comes from the Nile Valley culture and the hieroglyphic (Medu) language. It means The Earth Center, simply meaning a community or group standing for and with Earth. However, it has a deeper meaning from within the culture as well. Kebtah can also mean the navel of Earth and refers to energetic monuments that exist around the globe established with indigenous technologies to connect humanity to the natural order and its Divine Creators.
Approximately 2,500 years ago, during the invasions of the Nile Valley region of Kemet (Ancient Egypt), the bloodlines in charge of the highest echelons of knowledge decided to migrate from that region in order to preserve the integrity of the knowledge itself. They used the Sahara Desert as a line of defense because the invaders were not capable of surviving the challenging climate and conditions. Over centuries, these bloodlines migrated across the territories known today as Sudan, Chad, and Niger, eventually settling around the buckle of the Niger river, then venturing into various territories throughout West Africa. These families are what we know of today as the Dogon (or landlords).
Since then, the knowledge has been carefully preserved and protected in humble villages through a rigid system of education. To acquire this knowledge, Dogon youth have to undergo initiation which teaches them how to harmonize with nature. The Dogon initiation is what modern anthropologists call “secret societies” or “mystery schools”.
To protect the initiations, the Dogon bloodlines decided to no longer build elaborate and grand structures similar to the ones they built in the Nile valley which brought the attention of the invaders. They came to the conclusion that such material structures are not a requirement to live a spiritual life of quality; they decided instead to focus on spiritual evolution.
In fulfilling the heritage of his forefathers, Master Naba dedicated himself to researching and acquiring knowledge that would serve in the upliftment of humanity. The Naba family is a bloodline of researchers, priests, and temple caretakers historically known for traveling to other villages and territories spreading the knowledge and wisdom of the traditional indigenous sciences they have preserved.
The Naba Bloodline is a bloodline of the Dogon culture which runs through the Gulmu Empire. The Gulmu empire is also known for their knowledge and discipline, having preserved a rich culture founded on the M’TAM or Bayuali sciences, now called geomancy. Master Naba was a highly respected son of the Gulmu.
The highest throne of the Gulmu (Gourmantche) Empire of West Africa endorsed Prophet Neb Naba's mission. His majesty Untaamba now sits on the throne and receives regular reports from The Earth Center. The Earth Center also supports the royal palace through fundraising for cultural preservation projects initiated by his Majesty. Kebtah is also strongly connected with the extensive Naba families of various villages and towns in Eastern Burkina Faso.
