U+100D0 "𐃐" Linear B Ideogram B245 Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+100D0 "𐃐" Linear B Ideogram B245 is a specific symbol from the Linear B script, an ancient writing system used primarily for administrative records in Mycenaean Greek civilization around 1400 to 1200 BCE. This ideogram represents a particular commodity or item, likely a type of vessel, container, or associated product, as Linear B ideograms typically denoted tangible goods in palace inventories. While the precise meaning of B245 is debated among scholars, it belongs to a set of over 200 ideograms that helped scribes document economic activities without spelling out the words phonetically. Its inclusion in the Unicode Standard allows for the digital representation and study of Bronze Age Aegean scripts, preserving a link to early European literacy.
