U+1415A "𔅚" Egyptian Hieroglyph-# is a specific sign from the Egyptian hieroglyphic script, encoded in the Egyptian Hieroglyphs block of the Unicode Standard to support the digital representation of ancient Egyptian writing. This particular glyph belongs to a vast system of logographic and phonetic symbols used primarily for religious texts, monumental inscriptions, and administrative records in the Nile Valley from around 3200 BCE onward. Its precise meaning and phonetic value depend on its context within a hieroglyphic composition, as individual signs can function as ideograms, determinatives, or phonograms.
