The hieroglyph is represented by an arm and hand holding an offering to the gods. The offering was usually a bowl, said to be filled with wine, milk or simply cold water. In almost all representations the upper arm is kept parallel to the body and only the forearm is extended - exactly as the hieroglyph shows. derep - Offer
