Unicode Version 17.0

𓐷

U+13437 "𓐷" Egyptian Hieroglyph Begin Segment is a formatting control character used in the digital representation of Egyptian hieroglyphic texts. It serves as an invisible marker that indicates the beginning of a segment within a larger hieroglyphic sequence, helping to define how individual signs should be grouped or arranged for proper visual layout. This character is part of the Unicode standard's broader effort to encode the complex writing system of ancient Egypt, where hieroglyphs can be combined in various spatial arrangements rather than a simple linear order.
