Emblem of the East

The Egyptian hieroglyph Emblem of the East (𓋁 Gardiner no.

R15) is a portrayal of a standard, surmounted by the "Symbol of the East".

Her companion goddess Imentet is represented by the "Emblem of the West".

As an ideogram, it represents either iꜣbt "east" or iꜣby "left".

However, as the sun rises in the East, the solar cult often used the symbol.
