Unicode Version 17.0

𓦪

U+139AA "𓦪" Egyptian Hieroglyph-# is a specific glyph from the Egyptian Hieroglyphs block, part of the Gardiner sign list used to represent ancient Egyptian writing. This particular character, cataloged under the category of a "horned viper" or similar reptile, belongs to the set of signs depicting animals and mythological creatures, and it functioned as a phonogram or determinative in hieroglyphic texts, contributing to the phonetic spelling or semantic clarification of words related to danger, venom, or the divine. Its inclusion in Unicode allows for digital representation and study of this ancient script, preserving a small fragment of the complex writing system that was used for over three millennia along the Nile.
