The Memphis Rite and the closely related Misraim Rite were both Masonic systems which arose in the early nineteenth century and which feature some ninety-odd degrees. The prolixity of degrees led to a lot of repitition (although Mackey claimed that some of the Misraim degrees were of interest) and were difficult to sustain. These rites were virtually extinct by the 1870's but the esotericist John Yarker revived and combined the Rites into a new Rite of Memphis-Misraim. In this form, it may have a continued fringe existence even up to the present day, but its activities are too shadowy to clearly comment on.
