Egyptian Hieroglyph E002

212/1072

𓃓 is an ancient Egyptian sign showing a bull lowering its head to attack. It can mark rage or a wild bull, and sometimes stand for the word “bull” itself. Its role depends on the Egyptian spelling around it.

Text symbol

What 𓃓 means

It shows a bull ready to attack and can mark rage or bull words. The charging bull hieroglyph is Gardiner E2: its head is lowered as if to attack. It can serve as a classifier, a silent sign that narrows the meaning of a nearby word; in that role it marks rage or aggression, or a wild bull.

E2 appears in Unas’s Pyramid Texts, the funerary writings of a king from the 5th Dynasty. One passage is translated as “Has he killed you?”; another describes a wild bull. These texts were meant to aid Unas in the afterlife, so here the sign is part of a sentence in a funerary work, not a standalone emblem.

A 12th Dynasty example uses it as a word-sign for a verb meaning “to rage” or “become angry.” Under Ramesses III, it stands for the noun “bull” in the royal epithet “bull of his mother.” The examples give it different writing jobs; they do not make it a one-word sign for anger.

What does it mean when someone sends 𓃓?

It is not a reliable standalone way to say “I’m angry.” If someone sent you this hieroglyph by itself, treat it as a reference to Egyptian writing or a bull image, not as a settled translation. Ask what they mean if the distinction matters.

Its documented examples belong to funerary, literary, religious, and royal Egyptian writing.

Alone, it does not reliably mean “I’m angry.”

Why does 𓃓 show as a square?

The font or app may lack an outline for this Egyptian hieroglyph. A font with Egyptian hieroglyph coverage can display it; the square is a missing-glyph placeholder, not another sign.
