The Ankh, often referred to as the "Key of Life" or "Egyptian Cross," is an iconic symbol deeply intertwined with the rich tapestry of ancient Egyptian culture and spirituality. The Ankh is most commonly associated with life and immortality. Its shape resembles a key or a looped cross, suggesting the unlocking of the mysteries of life and the afterlife. The loop at the top is often interpreted as a depiction of eternal life. The Ankh is also linked to fertility and regeneration, symbolizing the cycle of life, death, and rebirth. It was often associated with deities related to these concepts, such as Osiris and Isis. In ancient Egyptian art and hieroglyphs, gods and pharaohs are often depicted holding the Ankh, signifying divine protection and the bestowal of life.
