Unicode Version 17.0
U+100C5 "𐃅" Linear B Ideogram B225 Bathtub is a symbol from the ancient Linear B script, which was used by the Mycenaean civilization in Greece around 1450 to 1200 BCE for administrative record keeping on clay tablets. This ideogram specifically represents a bathtub, an object that appears in the archaeological record of Mycenaean palaces and is often linked to both practical bathing and ritual purification practices. Its inclusion in the Linear B syllabary and ideograms category within the Unicode standard allows modern scholars and linguists to digitally encode and study these ancient inscriptions more easily. The character is part of a broader set of ideograms that depict everyday items, commodities, and livestock, providing valuable insight into the economic and domestic life of the Mycenaean world.
