Unicode Version 17.0
U+1368B "ð" Egyptian Hieroglyph-# is a specific sign from the ancient Egyptian writing system, representing a phonetic or ideographic value used in hieroglyphic texts. This character belongs to the Egyptian Hieroglyphs block in Unicode, which encodes thousands of signs from the classical script, and its appearance corresponds to a stylized depiction of a human or animal part, as is common in the vast hieroglyphic repertoire. While its exact meaning in context depends on its placement within a larger inscription, it typically functions as a determinative, phonogram, or logogram, contributing to the complex interplay of sound and meaning that defines Middle Egyptian writing.
