Road (hieroglyph)


The Ancient Egyptian Road-with-shrubs hieroglyph is Gardiner sign listed no. N31 for a road, "street", or pathway. It originally was a curving hieroglyph, but became a standardized straight form as well.
The road hieroglyph is used in Egyptian hieroglyphs as an ideogram or determinative in the word w3t-, for 'road'. It is also a phonogram for hr, from the word hrt, also for 'road'.
