IN ANCIENT EGYPT:
The shen ring was a key symbol in Ancient Egypt, representing eternity, protection, and completeness. The word "shen" means "to encircle," and it was depicted in hieroglyphics as a loop of rope with no beginning or end. This shape was often replicated in Ancient Egyptian jewellery, and was worn by deities and royalty for infinite protection.
