List of Egyptian hieroglyphs by alphabetization
A List of Egyptian hieroglyphs by alphabetization, starts at A-(3), has 3, (or 4) more vowel-equivalents, and ends at dj, (not an Egyptian biliteral).
The common use Egyptian hieroglyphs numbered between 650-700 including variants. By late Ancient Egyptian time, including the Ptolemaic Egypt, the number of hieroglyphs became in the multiple thousands, as many can be found ligatured (for example, the Min Palette of Predynastic Egypt).
The alphabet of 24 (25) common characters is arranged as follows: (there are also supplemental alphabetic characters)
