Shen-ropes
Figure 16. The Shen-rope
A loop of rope that has no beginning and no end, it symbolized eternity. The sun
disk is often depicted in the center of it. The shen also seems to be a symbol
of protection. It is often seen being clutched by deities in bird form, Horus
the falcon, Mut the vulture. Hovering over Pharaohs head with their wings
outstretched in a gesture of protection. The word shen comes from the word "shenu"
which means "encircle," and in its elongated form became the cartouche which
surrounded the king's name.

The shen ring is a hieroglyphic representation of a coiled rope; a circle with a line at a tangent to it. The word shen in ancient Egyptian means to encircle. Horus and the Mut have the shenu in their talons, wings outstretched, over the scene portrayed.
