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 thus, is considered a symbol of life itself. It continued to be used by the Coptic Egyptians who adapted it as a crux ansata, a version of the Christian cross with a circular ring similar to the ankh.

The ankh
The tag has a cross shape but with an oval ring instead of the top strap. The origins of the symbol are unknown, although several hypotheses have been proposed. It was used in writing as a triple mark, representing a string of three letters p-n-kh . This sequence can be found in many Egyptian words, including the words meaning "mirror," "flower bouquet," and "life." Often the symbol appears in a physical form and represents life or materials 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 strength in preserving life and reviving human spirits in the afterlife. It was one of the most common decorations in ancient Egypt and was adopted by neighboring cultures as a work of art. Since the late twentieth 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 .
