U+100E0 "𐃠" Linear B Ideogram Vessel B201 is a pictographic 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 specific ideogram represents a type of vessel, likely a jar, pot, or container used for storage or trade, and its precise designation as "Vessel B201" reflects the cataloging system developed by scholars to organize the hundreds of ideograms found in Linear B inscriptions.
