U+13D6E "𓵮" Egyptian Hieroglyph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

𓵮

U+13D6E "𓵮" Egyptian Hieroglyph-# is a code point allocated within the Egyptian Hieroglyphs block (U+13000–U+1342F) of the Unicode Standard, representing a specific hieroglyphic sign from ancient Egyptian writing. It corresponds to Gardiner's sign list category V, which encompasses ropes, fibers, and baskets, and is typically identified with a looped or tied cord motif. As part of the expanded Egyptian Hieroglyphs encoding, this character enables digital representation of the script used for over three millennia, though individual signs like this one often lack commonly agreed-upon standardized names or transliterations outside of scholarly databases. Its inclusion in Unicode aids historians and linguists in preserving and analyzing ancient texts, but practical use requires specialized fonts and software support.
