The ancient Egyptian Egg hieroglyph, Gardiner sign listed no. H8, is a portrayal of an ''oval-shaped egg'', tilted at an angle, within the Gardiner signs for ''parts of birds''. It is an Egyptian language hieroglyph determinative used for the Egyptian word ''swht'', "egg".〔Betrò, 1995. ''Hieroglyphics: The Writings of Ancient Egypt'', Egg: p. 125.〕 It is also used for the names of goddesses. Goddess Isis uses the egg in her hieroglyphic block.〔Betrò, 1995, Egg: p. 125.〕 Cleopatra III uses the ''egg hieroglyph'' as part of her name within her cartouche-(see here: ()). ==See also== *Gardiner's Sign List#H.
