Unicode Version 17.0

𓢶

U+138B6 "𓢶" Egyptian Hieroglyph-# is a specific glyph from the Egyptian Hieroglyph Extended-A block, which was added to the Unicode Standard in 2018 as part of version 11.0. This character represents a single hieroglyphic sign from ancient Egyptian writing, though its exact phonetic value or meaning is not specified in the Unicode name and requires reference to standard hieroglyphic sign lists such as Gardiner's sign list. As part of a larger effort to digitally encode ancient scripts, this character allows scholars, linguists, and software developers to represent and process Egyptian hieroglyphic texts in modern computing environments with greater accuracy than relying on substitute symbols or fonts.
