GMK Aegyptus
A keycap set themed around one of the greatest and most
powerful civilizations in the history of the world.
Ancient
Egypt, the mysterious civilization that dates as far back
as the 4th millennium BCE. Its wonders preserved
throughout the times in various forms of art, monuments,
and hidden secrets to be rediscovered thousands of years
later. The impact of such a civilization would ruffle the
pages of history and change the world forever. Ancient
Egypt was truly a civilization like no other. The
agriculture, unique society, and of course the beliefs of
the people truly made it a marvel of the ancient world an
oasis in the desert, Kemet. However, all things, no matter
how great, eventually come to an end. Egypt was
resurrected several times, but it never attained its
former glory. The Egypt of antiquity came as close as it
ever would to its mythical status. Some believe that the
Greek and Roman influence of antiquity did more harm than
good. Perhaps extraterrestrials are to blame. After all,
how did they build the pyramids back then? Nonetheless,
the impact of this once pinnacle civilization will echo
throughout history and the sands of time for all eternity,
even in the realm of the Duat - or so they say.

Colors
GMK L9, GMK N7, Pantone 4019C
It was rumored that Ancient Egypt was pristine hdj
(white) and nbw (gold), everywhere you looked. However I
believe it to have realistically been more beige/ivory
as opposed to a pristine white. There is no way something
remains white with that much sand around. Therefore, I think
that GMK L9 and N7 capture that depiction beautifully.
Moreover, wadj (green) was a popular color in Ancient Egypt.
The Ancient Egyptians believed in a god who they called
Osiris: the god of fertility, agriculture, the dead, and
resurrection. It is said that Osiris’ skin is wadj (green)
in color. Therefore, it is incorporated into several aspects
of the Ancient Egyptian culture and can be seen in things
ranging from the use of Malachite rock (the source of all
things green in Ancient Egypt) in ceremonial scarabs to the
almighty Osiris himself and the Field of Reeds.

Special Thanks
I want to thank everyone who played a part, no matter how
small or large, in the making of this set. My love for
history and the worlds of past would not have come to life
as the first keycap set that I have designed without you
all. I am humbled to have designed a keycap set with such
a powerful theme as this. My sincerest thanks and
gratitude to the following people: CoolMike, goldiwolfi,
sGhost, Fatboycarney, Break, Meika from Latrialum,
Koobaczech, Konstantin whose knowledge and insight on
kitting has indirectly helped me, the guys over at Asero
Foundry, and my fellow team members at Mechs & Co.
