Unicode Version 17.0

𓯾

U+13BFE "𓯾" Egyptian Hieroglyph-# is a specific glyph from the extended Egyptian Hieroglyph repertoire, encoded in the Unicode Standard to represent a particular sign used in ancient Egyptian writing. This character belongs to a large block of hieroglyphic symbols that were added to Unicode to support the digital representation of the classical Egyptian language, often used in religious, administrative, and monumental inscriptions. The glyph itself corresponds to a known hieroglyphic sign, though its exact phonetic or logographic value depends on the context of the text in which it appears, as Egyptian hieroglyphs could function as consonants, determinatives, or ideograms. By including "𓯾" and similar characters, Unicode enables scholars, historians, and enthusiasts to accurately transcribe and study ancient Egyptian texts in a digital environment without relying on placeholder images or approximate substitutions.
