Unlike Emoji Egyptian Hieroglyphs are actually a recognized language and it was recently discovered that "Glyphs" can be registered in .com and a few people have taken advantage and registered some very interesting domains. Unlike most languages there are not that many "Glyphs" available so making the niche even more interesting.
Here are just a few examples of what can be registered in .com

Here is a very recent comment on a Egyptian Hieroglyphic domain name related website from an Egyptian government source.

"Ministry of Communications and Information Technology @mcit.gov.eg

“It is a good idea to have hieroglyphic symbols to access our Egyptian “specially historic websites” online content , so we should consider the Universal Acceptance for these symbols.”

Example:

Only problem is some systems/browsers won't display them. Maybe more support will come. They are cooler than emoji though, more realistic. It's a lot of click bait, if someone sees it imo. Some are more intricate than others. Here's a couple photos I made with fancy text. This is really how they display, except fancy colors ofc...there must be more, we left a bunch!

Hieroglyphs have been around for a very long time. Egyptian symbols can convey a multitude of meanings & it makes sound sense in registering one as a domain.
I registered a few single character ones in .com

There is a movie with poo as the main character voiced by Patrick Stewart.

This glyph is actually "dung", very basic at the moment but my skills are not good enough and hands not steady enough to make it look good but you get the idea.
