Unicode Version 17.0

𓟄

U+137C4 "𓟄" Egyptian Hieroglyph-# is a specific glyph included in the Egyptian Hieroglyphs block of the Unicode standard, which encodes a large set of hieroglyphic signs from ancient Egyptian writing. This particular character corresponds to a drawing of a human or divine figure seated on a throne or stool, often associated with the concept of "king" or "god" in hieroglyphic texts, and its designation as "Egyptian Hieroglyph-#" indicates that it is a placeholder or a sign with a general numeric reference within the classification system. It represents a small but meaningful piece of the complex script used for over 3,000 years to record religious, administrative, and literary texts, and its inclusion in Unicode allows for digital representation and study of these historical symbols across modern platforms.
