An Egyptian hieroglyph that symbolizes life
The ankh or the key to life is an ancient Egyptian hieroglyphic symbol that was used in writing and art to represent the word “life” and, therefore, as a symbol of life itself. Its use continued through the Coptic Egyptians who adapted it as the crux ansata which is a version of the Christian cross with a circular ring similar to the ankh ring.

the ankh
The sign has the shape of a cross but with an oval ring in place of the top bar. The origins of the symbol are unknown, although several hypotheses have been proposed. It was used in writing as a triple sign, representing a sequence of three letters A-N-KH. This sequence can be found in many Egyptian words, including the words for “mirror,” “bouquet,” and “life.” The symbol often appears in physical form and represents life or substances such as air or water.

It was especially popular in the hands of the gods, or given by them to the pharaoh, to represent their power to preserve life and revive human souls in the afterlife. It was one of the most common motifs in ancient Egypt and was adopted by neighboring cultures as a work of art. Since the late 20th century, in the Western world, the symbol has come to be used decoratively, as a symbol of African cultural identity, neo-pagan belief systems, and Gothic culture.
