Unicode Version 17.0

𓹳

U+13E73 "𓹳" Egyptian Hieroglyph-# is a specific glyph from the extended repertoire of Egyptian hieroglyphs encoded in Unicode, representing a well-defined sign from the ancient Egyptian writing system often associated with specific ideographic or phonetic values. This particular character falls within the Egyptian Hieroglyphs Extended-A block (U+13430 to U+136FF), which includes a wide range of additional signs used in funerary, religious, and administrative texts, particularly from the Late Period and Ptolemaic era. Its precise meaning or phonetic use would depend on the context of the original inscription, but like all hieroglyphs, it functions either as an ideogram depicting a tangible object or concept, a phonogram representing a sound or syllable, or a determinative clarifying the category of a word. The inclusion of such detailed signs in Unicode enables accurate digital representation and study of ancient Egyptian texts without relying on approximate substitutes or images.
