English: A (so defined) Zoographic Character, said to be an ancient version of the Coptic script according to Athanasius Kircher's 1697 book Turris Babel.

This specific character is said to correspond to the coptic letter Chi, Greek Χ, χ; its mystical meaning is said by Kircher to be the "symbol of the upward and downward movement of the World's Soul" (Processus animae mundi ἄνω καὶ κάτω)

Please be noted that those above are the interpretations given by Kircher himself, and must not be taken as scientific thruths in the modern sense.

Extracted and cut out from page 231 of the book file; see there and in the previous and following pages for a more extended discussion (in latin).
