The Unicode chart for the
Miscellaneous Symbols and Pictographs block notes many religious symbols: : Ostensibly religious symbols are, however, not limited to this section, as the same chart has another short section of two characters labelled "Syriac cross symbols", with the explanatory gloss "These symbols are used in liturgical texts of Syriac-speaking churches". Another short section of two symbols is headed "Medical and healing symbols", including U+2624 ☤
Caduceus (cf. U+1F750 🝐 "alchemical symbol for caduceus"), U+2695 ⚕
Staff of Aesculapius, and U+2625 ☥
Ankh, all of which originate in polytheistic religious traditions. ==Symbols and Pictographs Extended-A block==
