U+2C94 "Ⲕ" Coptic Capital Letter Kapa Unicode Character

U+2C94 "Ⲕ" Coptic Capital Letter Kapa is a glyph used in the Coptic script, which was developed to write the Coptic language, the final stage of the ancient Egyptian language written in a predominantly Greek-derived alphabet. This capital letter corresponds to the sound /k/ and is the Coptic equivalent of the Greek letter Kappa, from which it is directly derived, though it features a distinct shape with a rounded bowl and a straight stem. Its inclusion in Unicode supports the digital representation of historical Coptic manuscripts and liturgical texts, particularly within the Christian Egyptian tradition.
