U+13562 "𓕢" Egyptian Hieroglyph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

𓕢

U+13562 "𓕢" Egyptian Hieroglyph-# is a specific sign from the ancient Egyptian hieroglyphic script, part of the broad Unicode block that encodes the classical writing system of Egypt from around 3200 BCE onward. This particular glyph belongs to the category of architectural or structural signs, representing a stylized rendering of a building or enclosure, likely tied to masonry or temple construction in temple inscriptions, tomb texts, and religious papyri. As a regular character in the Unicode Egyptian Hieroglyphs block (U+13000 to U+1342F and its extension), it allows modern digital text to capture the nuances of pharaonic language and art, preserving a symbol that once carried both literal and metaphoric weight in ritual or administrative contexts.
