The nemyss is the ritual Egyptian head-dress of the pharaohs. It is best known from popular images of the sarcophagus of King Tutankhamen. The nemyss is a folded linen cloth that rises from the brow and hangs toward the shoulders. The nemyss is still in wide use today by Kemetic practitioners and a number of magickal orders, including various Golden Dawn reconstructions and in Thelemic rituals.
