U+10019 "𐀙" Linear B Syllable B006 Na Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+10019 "𐀙" Linear B Syllable B006 Na is a single glyph from the Linear B script, which was used in ancient Greece (primarily on Crete and mainland Greece) during the Late Bronze Age, roughly between 1450 and 1200 BCE, to write an early form of Greek and the Minoan language. This specific syllable, transcribed as "na," represents a simple consonant vowel combination, and it belongs to a syllabary system of about 87 signs that were primarily employed for administrative record keeping on clay tablets found at sites like Knossos and Pylos. Its inclusion in the Unicode standard ensures that researchers, linguists, and digital humanists can accurately encode, display, and study this ancient writing system in modern electronic texts without relying on specialized or proprietary fonts.
