"Per ankh" is the modern pronunciation of the hieroglyphs pr 'inkh, which literally means "the house of life".
This is the name given to part of most temple complexes, where novice priests were trained (a kind of school), where records were kept, where astronomical calculations were performed, dreams interpreted, medical texts referred to, where maps, mathematical and legal information were stored.
So think of the "house of life" as a mixture of school, university, museum, library and law court in each major temple across Egypt.
