U+140B5 "𔂵" Egyptian Hieroglyph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

𔂵

U+140B5 "𔂵" Egyptian Hieroglyph-# is a sign from the extended Egyptian Hieroglyph repertoire, specifically part of the control block and used as a placeholder or generic hieroglyphic symbol within encoded text. It belongs to the Egyptian Hieroglyphs Extended-A block, which includes signs from later periods of the writing system. This particular code point was included to represent an unspecified or generic hieroglyph, often employed in digital contexts where a specific glyph is not needed or where the character serves as a demonstration or fallback for incomplete encoding. Its appearance can vary depending on the font, but it typically depicts a simplified outline resembling a seated figure or common hieroglyphic form, though it does not correspond to a single established Gardiner sign.
