U+2CCC "Ⳍ" Coptic Capital Letter Old Coptic Hori Unicode Character

U+2CCC "Ⳍ" Coptic Capital Letter Old Coptic Hori is a typographic symbol used in the Coptic script, specifically representing an archaic or "Old Coptic" form of the letter Hori, which corresponds to the sound /h/ or a similar voiceless glottal fricative. This character is part of the Coptic Unicode block and is designated as a capital letter, historically employed in early Coptic manuscripts before the standardization of the Coptic alphabet. Its design is derived from the Egyptian Demotic script, reflecting the transitional phase between ancient Egyptian writing systems and the later, more uniform Coptic alphabet. The character is distinct from other Coptic Hori variants and is primarily of interest to scholars studying paleography and the evolution of the Coptic language.
