Unicode Status for Egyptian Hieroglyphs

In The Unicode Standard, implementation of Egyptian Hieroglyphs is discussed in Chapter 11 Cuneiform and Hieroglyphs, UTN 32: Mapping Between Manuel de Codage and Unicode Egyptian Hieroglyphs, and in Unicode Egyptian Hieroglyph Database (Unikemet).

The Egyptian Hieroglyphs were encoded in The Unicode Standard version 5.2. The script is encoded in the following blocks:

BlocksCharacter RangeAdded in Unicode VersionUnicode Chart
Egyptian Hieroglyphs13000..1342F5.2U13000
Egyptian Hieroglyph Format Controls13430..1343F12.0U13430
Egyptian Hieroglyphs Extended-A13460..1355F16.0U13460

Subsequent to version 5.2, the following characters have been added to the Egyptian Hieroglyphs:
