Hi,

Thanks to Magda Danish and Mark Shoulson---
the numbers I vaguely remember from Egypt in 1995 are
indeed at U+0660 through U+0669.

Apparently the history of numeration in Egypt is
complicated.  

I'm looking at Egyptian and other numbers borrowed
into Hebrew and Aramaic during various periods.  There
are at least 2 sets, none yet in Unicode.  

The possible 'hieratic' numbers in earlier Hebrew are
glyphic variants (I guess) of the real Egyptian
ones---but not even one glyph is the same.  

Confusing!--Elaine
