𐂃
U+10083 "𐂃" Linear B Ideogram B105 Equid is a symbol from the ancient Linear B script, which was used for writing Mycenaean Greek, primarily on clay tablets dating from around 1450 to 1200 BCE. This ideogram specifically represents a "horse" or "equid," and it was employed in administrative records to denote these animals, likely in contexts such as inventories, trade, or military contributions. As part of the Linear B syllabary and ideographic system, this character offers modern scholars a direct glimpse into the economic and logistical concerns of Mycenaean palatial societies.
