U+140E4 "𔃤" Egyptian Hieroglyph-# Unicode Character

U+140E4 "𔃤" Egyptian Hieroglyph-# is a specific sign from the ancient Egyptian writing system, encoded in the Unicode Standard under the Egyptian Hieroglyphs block. This particular glyph, identified by its unique code point, represents a logogram or phonogram used in the formal hieroglyphic script of the Middle Kingdom and later periods, though its exact lexicographic meaning is often designated by a number rather than a common name due to the complexity and incomplete nature of modern understanding of hundreds of such signs. It is primarily of interest to scholars, linguists, and historians who study Egyptian language and epigraphy, as it enables accurate digital preservation and reproduction of ancient texts without relying on placeholder images.
