Glyph origin

[edit]
This sign does not actually exist in hieroglyphic text; it is an artificial glyph used for transcribing a hieratic character deriving from the convergence of the hieratic forms of
Sn
n
and
sn
. Compare the further simplified Demotic form of the character, sn-2 or sn.

Symbol

[edit]
V49A
  1. Used in transcribing hieratic signs into hieroglyphs in cases where it is not clear whether a given hieratic sign represents
    Sn
    n
    (šn) or
    sn
    (sn). See 𓍲 or 𓌢 for usage.
