Shen:
A loop of rope that has no beginning and no end, it symbolized eternity. The sun disk is often depicted in the center of it. The Shen also seems to be a symbol of protection. It is often seen being clutched by deities in bird form, Horus the falcon, Mut the vulture. Hovering over Pharaohs head with their wings outstretched in a gesture of protection. The word Shen comes from the word 'Shenu' which means 'encircle', and in its elongated form became the cartouche which surrounded the king's name.
