Is the Anastasis and Resurrection the same in early christian iconography?

The Anastasis refers to Jesus' decent into hell after he died. He went there to release people who had lived holy lives before he died from hell into heaven. He is traditionally seen as freeing Adam and Eve from caskets, taking their hands.
The Resurrection came after the Anastasis- that is when Jesus actually rose from the dead/from hell. So they are close but not the same.
