Unicode Version 17.0

𓽖

U+13F56 "𓽖" Egyptian Hieroglyph-# is part of the Egyptian Hieroglyphs Extended-A block, which was added to the standard to accommodate a large number of previously unencoded signs from ancient Egyptian writing, particularly those cataloged in the Hieratische Paläographie. This specific glyph represents a numbered hieroglyph, designated by the "#" placeholder, and is used in scholarly transcriptions and digital renderings of Egyptian texts. Its inclusion supports the digital preservation and analysis of the language by allowing precise encoding of individual signs, which aids Egyptologists in research, publication, and the study of hieroglyphic orthography across various historical periods.
