An Egyptian ankh necklace

Originally, the ancient Egyptian word "ankh" itself means "life". This strange Egyptian cross symbol was considered as a religious symbol of "life" and by extension of the god of immortality Osiris.

 

A pendant from ancient Egypt

The pharaohs of the New Kingdom established a period of unprecedented prosperity by securing their borders and strengthening diplomatic ties with their neighbours.
 
Military campaigns under Thutmose I and his grandson, Thutmose III extended the pharaohs' influence in Syria and Nubia. They also strengthened loyalties and get access to essential imports such as bronze and wood. Pharaohs in the New Kingdom began a large-scale campaign to promote the falcon-headed god Amun-Ra (whose cult was based at Karnak).
