U+13B6B "" Egyptian Hieroglyph-# Unicode Character
U+13B6B "" Egyptian Hieroglyph-# is part of the Egyptian Hieroglyphs Extended-A block, representing a specific sign from the ancient Egyptian writing system that depicts a kneeling prisoner with his arms bound behind his back, as noted in the foundational Gardiner’s sign list under the code A13 for the “bound captive.” This ideogram served as a determinative or logogram in hieroglyphic texts to convey concepts of enemies, foreign captives, or hostility, often appearing in royal inscriptions and temple reliefs to symbolize conquered peoples. Its inclusion in Unicode allows for digital representation and study of this historical script, facilitating research in Egyptology and preserving the visual character that once conveyed powerful political and military symbolism in ancient Egyptian culture.
