U+13362 "𓍢" Egyptian Hieroglyph V001 Unicode Character

U+13362 "𓍢" Egyptian Hieroglyph V001 is a sign from the ancient Egyptian writing system, specifically classified under the Gardiner sign list as V001, where it represents the numeral for 100,000. This hieroglyph depicts a tadpole, a creature symbolizing abundance and large numbers due to its prolific reproduction, and it was used in monumental inscriptions and papyri to denote astronomical quantities, often in contexts of grain measures or troop counts. As part of the Egyptian Hieroglyphs block in Unicode, this character enables modern digital representation of a script that dates back over five thousand years, preserving the visual form of a logogram that once conveyed both a phonetic value and a numeric concept in the complex administrative and religious texts of pharaonic Egypt.
