| Sterling Silver Ankh Earrings with ball posts.
The Ankh, known in Latin as a crux ansata (handle-shaped cross), is the Egyptian hieroglyphic symbol for 'life'. The Ankh has also been used in other societies and has different meanings. The vampurical meaning, for instance, is a 'happy, ever-lasting life'.
The Ankh is found inscripted in ancient Egyptian tombs (such as King Tutankhamen). Ancient Egyptian Gods and Pharaohs are often depicted holding an Ankh. The Ankh also forms part of the hieroglyphic concepts such as health and happiness. Ankhs were also used for oath taking in early Egyptian society.
