U+101F6 "𐇶" Phaistos Disc Sign Lily is a pictographic symbol originating from the ancient Phaistos Disc, a fired clay disk discovered in 1908 on the Greek island of Crete and dating to the Minoan Bronze Age. This specific sign depicts a stylized lily or flower, and it is one of 45 distinct symbols stamped into the disc using movable type, though the meaning of the entire inscription remains undeciphered. As part of the Phaistos Disc block in Unicode, it enables digital representation and study of this mysterious artifact, often interpreted by researchers as a possible representation of a plant, a decorative motif, or a syllable in a lost writing system.
