[en] Currently, Unicode includes a core of approx. 1,000 Egyptian hieroglyphs. For more than five years, a group of scholars from Egyptology, Microsoft, and Unicode, as well as independent researchers have been working on the expansion of this core set. Between Jan 16th and 18th 2023 international scholars from Egyptology and Unicode have met and finalized the set of proposed new hieroglyphs for the next update of Unicode (v16).
