Probably one of the most, if not THE most famous hieroglyph, the mysterious and iconic Ankh symbolises (and in the magical tradition of ancient Egypt, imparts) life. In this week's video, the first of my Symbols of the Two Lands series, I explore the origins, meanings and uses of the Ankh.
Look out for a new Armchair Egyptology video every Wednesday.
