Glyph origin

[edit]

Representing a man crouching with his arms raised, hiding. In later depictions (since partway through the 18th Dynasty), the man is hiding behind a wall; in earlier depictions the wall is not present, and the glyph was visually similar to 𓀃 (

A4

) but for the different posture. This and other glyphs depicting men conventionally color the skin red; the hair is typically black, and the clothing white (sometimes with black outlines or details).

Symbol

[edit]
A5

  1. Determinative for jmn (hide).
