The Ankh is an ancient Egyptian symbol
of Eternal Life, symbolizing the joining of the masculine and feminine
principal, and the cross of "as above so below". In Egyptian
art, especially that depicting the afterlife, their gods and goddesses
are shown holding the Ankh by its loop as if it were a key. It is believed
that this symbolically shows the Ankh would open the gates of death on
to immortality. It is also known as the Key of the Nile, representing
the union of Isis and Osiris.
