Sky (hieroglyph)

The ancient Egyptian Sky hieroglyph, (also translated as heaven in some texts, or iconography), is Gardiner sign listed no.

N1, within the Gardiner signs for sky, earth, and water.

[1] The Sky hieroglyph can be found in iconography with the gods, especially Ra as referencing the Lord of P(e)t, (Lord of Heaven), and the God's ownership of Pet.

Some ancient Egyptian names using the sky hieroglyph are Petosiris and the god Petbe.

Consequently, Budge's 2-volume dictionary lists the sky hieroglyph under "pe-t"[3]
