U+102F9 "𐋹" Coptic Epact Number Seven Hundred Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+102F9 "𐋹" Coptic Epact Number Seven Hundred is a numeral symbol used within the Coptic calendar and liturgical numbering system, specifically employed to denote the value of 700 in the Epact cycle, which calculates the age of the moon. This character belongs to the Coptic Epact Numbers block, a specialized set of signs derived from the Greek-based Coptic alphabet but adapted for astronomical and chronological notation. In its historical context, the epact system helped early Christian communities, particularly in Egypt, determine the dates of movable feasts like Easter by tracking lunar months relative to the solar year. The glyph itself visually combines elements of the Coptic letter for "psi" or a stylized cross, reflecting its cultural and religious heritage, though it is rarely used in modern digital text outside of scholarly or historical documentation.
