Unicode Version 17.0

𓄝

U+1311D "𓄝" Egyptian Hieroglyph F029 is classified in the Gardiner Sign List under the category of parts of mammals, specifically depicting a cow’s ear or the head of a horned animal, and is often associated with the concept of hearing, the sense of hearing, or the phonetic value of "sḏm" in ancient Egyptian writing. This hieroglyph commonly appears in inscriptions on temple walls, papyri, and funerary objects, where it serves both as an ideogram for listening or obedience and as a phonetic complement in the spelling of related words. Its representation, showing a stylized ear attached to an animal head, reflects the Egyptians’ careful observation of nature and their symbolic use of body parts to convey abstract ideas through their writing system.
