𓆹

U+131B9 "𓆹" Egyptian Hieroglyph M010 is a pictographic glyph from the ancient Egyptian writing system, specifically categorized under the "Plants and Trees" sign list as a representation of a lotus plant or flower. This hieroglyph, often used in inscriptions to symbolize rebirth, creation, and the sun due to the lotus's daily cycle of closing at night and reopening at dawn, also held phonetic value for the sound "sšn" and was frequently employed in religious and funerary contexts to evoke concepts of purity and regeneration. Its inclusion in modern text and digital fonts through Unicode allows for the encoding and display of this historically significant symbol in contemporary electronic documents and communications.
