Unicode Version 17.0

𓢃

U+13883 "𓢃" Egyptian Hieroglyph-# is a specific glyph from the Egyptian Hieroglyphs block added in Unicode version 5.2, representing a nonstandard or placeholder sign often used in digital transcriptions of ancient Egyptian texts. This particular character falls under the category of Supplement Hieroglyphs, which encode rarely used or variant signs that extend the basic set of over 1,000 core hieroglyphs. Its designation as "Egyptian Hieroglyph-#" indicates that it does not correspond to a standard Gardiner sign list entry, instead serving as a generic or specialized symbol for scholarly notation in Egyptology. The glyph itself visually resembles a vertical or angled linear form, though its precise meaning and usage depend on the context of the text in which it appears.
