Unicode Version 17.0

𓱩

U+13C69 "𓱩" Egyptian Hieroglyph-# is a specific hieroglyphic symbol included in the Egyptian Hieroglyphs Extended-A block, which was added to the Unicode Standard to represent ancient Egyptian writing. This particular glyph is part of a broader effort to digitally encode the vast array of signs used in the classical script of ancient Egypt, allowing for accurate electronic representation and scholarly exchange. The designation "Egyptian Hieroglyph-#" indicates that while the character is a recognized sign from the Gardiner sign list or similar inventory, its exact phonetic or semantic value is typically referenced by its catalog number rather than a common name. Its inclusion in Unicode helps preserve and facilitate the study of one of the world’s oldest writing systems.
