U+137F5 "𓟵" Egyptian Hieroglyph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

𓟵

U+137F5 "𓟵" Egyptian Hieroglyph-# is a graphical sign from the Egyptian Hieroglyph block of the Unicode Standard, specifically coded at hexadecimal U+137F5 under the name "EGYPTIAN HIEROGLYPH-137F5." This character belongs to the diverse set of over a thousand hieroglyphic symbols encoded to represent the writing system of ancient Egypt, and its specific function is to serve as an unassigned or placeholder character in the repertoire, often referred to as a "timesharing" or "dummy" sign that may be used for scribal or nonstandard purposes within digital texts. Its existence helps maintain the structural completeness of the hieroglyphic coding system, though it does not correspond to a traditional, named hieroglyph from the Gardiner or other standard sign lists.
