U+10285 "𐊅" Lycian Letter D is a character from the Lycian script, an alphabet used to write the Lycian language in ancient Anatolia (modern-day Turkey) between roughly 500 and 300 BCE. This letter represents the sound /d/ and is one of 29 known Lycian letters, which were derived from the Greek alphabet but adapted with unique symbols for native sounds. The Lycian script is primarily attested in stone inscriptions and coin legends, and while the language is not fully understood, it is classified as a member of the Anatolian branch of the Indo-European language family, closely related to Luwian and Hittite.
