List of all characters from the Egyptian Hieroglyphs Unicode Characters
The Egyptian Hieroglyphs block contains characters used in the ancient Egyptian writing system of hieroglyphs, which was used for religious and monumental inscriptions from around 3000 BCE to the 4th century CE. Hieroglyphs are a complex writing system that includes logograms, phonograms (symbols representing sounds), and determinatives (symbols indicating the meaning of a word). This block includes several hundred hieroglyphic characters used in ancient Egyptian texts, providing the means to read and study one of the most iconic writing systems in human history. Hieroglyphs were primarily used in religious contexts, particularly in temples and tombs, and they remain a key source of information about ancient Egyptian culture, religion, and history..
