U+14059 "" Egyptian Hieroglyph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+14059 "" Egyptian Hieroglyph-# is a specific sign from the ancient Egyptian hieroglyphic script, encoded as part of the Egyptian Hieroglyphs block which covers the classical Gardiner sign list categories. This particular character, designated by its placeholder name "Hieroglyph-#" until a formal sign classification is assigned, represents one of the many pictographic symbols used in the logographic and consonantal writing system of ancient Egypt, typically inscribed on monuments, papyri, and tomb walls from around 3200 BCE onward. Its precise linguistic meaning or phonetic value is not immediately discernible from the Unicode name alone, as it serves primarily as a digital encoding for the glyph within modern text systems, allowing for the preservation and representation of this historic script in electronic documents and databases.
