It is believed that the ankh holders can be resurrected. Thus, the ankh is a certificate of passage to safely cross the "border" between this world and the afterlife of Osiris. 
 

A pendant from ancient Egypt

Around 1650 BC, as the power of the Middle Kingdom pharaohs weakened, Asian settlers living in the city of Avaris in the eastern delta took control of the region and forced the central government to withdraw to Thebes, where the pharaoh was treated as a vassal who had to pay tribute.
 
The Hyksos (literally, "foreign rulers") imitated the Egyptian model of government and called themselves pharaohs, incorporating Egyptian elements into their mid-Bronze Age culture.
