Anubis carried a staff.
the symbol on the staff is the ankh (pronounced onk) and it represents everlasting life
The staff that Anubis is often pictured with is a Was Sceptre. It appears as a long staff with an animal head on top and a forked end. Was Sceptres were used as a symbol of power or dominion.
Anubis has several symbols, the was- sceptre (power), the flail (protection), the Imiut fetish (embalming/death), as well as the Ankh (eternal life).
This staff is possibly the "was-scepter". This is a long staff mounted with an animal head. It was a symbol of power or dominion, and seen being held by Set and Anubis. In later use, it was a symbol of control over the force of chaos that Set represented. In a funerary context the was sceptre was responsible for the well-being of the deceased.
When depicted standing alone, the Egyptian god Anubis (hieroglyphs 'inpw) holds an ankh symbol in one hand and a staff in the other (either left or right, depending on which way he is facing) The same staff is also seen being carried by Ra, Thoth, Isis, Amon and many other gods.The staff is simply an elongated version of the hieroglyph wAs, meaning "dominion" or lordship, signifying the authority of the particular god or goddess holding it.
