Early names for Upper and Lower Egypt were Ta-Sheme'awand Ta-Mehew. Another name for ancient Egypt was Kemet ("black land"). The Greeks gave Egypt its widely-used name (Agyptos) and the modern Arabic name Misr is from the Semitic Mitzrayim). During its period as a Christian nation (Roman and Byzantine era), it was called Copt, and the language is referred to as Coptic. Christianity was bought to Egypt by St. Mark around 42 AD. After the conquest of Egypt by the Sunni Arabs in 639 AD , Coptic was not allowed as a language. (It is, however, still in use by the Coptic Orthodox church as a liturgical language. The church grew from the time of St. Mark and was split from the other Orthodox churches by the Council of Chalcedon in 451 AD.)
