U+100E7 "𐃧" Linear B Ideogram Vessel B208 Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+100E7 "𐃧" Linear B Ideogram Vessel B208 is a specific sign from the Linear B script, a syllabic writing system used primarily for administrative records in Mycenaean Greek during the late Bronze Age, around 1450 to 1200 BCE. This ideogram represents a type of vessel, likely a container used for storing or measuring commodities such as oil, wine, or grain, as commonly documented on clay tablets from palatial sites like Knossos and Pylos. Its designation "B208" follows the standard classification system for Linear B ideograms, where each number corresponds to a distinct pictographic symbol. The inclusion of this character in Unicode ensures its preservation for academic study, digital encoding, and historical research into Mycenaean economy and language.
