Unicode Version 17.0
U+13295 "ð“Š•" Egyptian Hieroglyph O048 is a sign from the ancient Egyptian writing system, specifically belonging to Gardiner's sign list under the category of structures, buildings, and their parts. This particular glyph depicts a niche or a recessed doorway, often referred to as a "palace facade" or "serekh," and was commonly used in inscriptions to represent a royal enclosure or the tomb of a king. In the context of Egyptian hieroglyphic writing, it appears most famously as the upper portion of the early royal serekh, a rectangular symbol that contained the Horus name of the pharaoh, symbolizing the king's palace and divine authority. As part of the Unicode standard since version 12.0, this character allows for the digital representation and preservation of over two thousand hieroglyphs, enabling modern scholars and enthusiasts to study and share the complex visual language of ancient Egypt in electronic texts.
