U+102FB "𐋻" Coptic Epact Number Nine Hundred Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+102FB "𐋻" Coptic Epact Number Nine Hundred is a numeral symbol from the Coptic script, specifically part of the Coptic Epact Numbers block used for astronomical and calendar calculations in the Coptic Church. This character represents the numerical value 900, derived from the ancient Egyptian system of epact numbers, which were employed to calculate the phases of the moon and determine the date of Easter. Historically, these numbers were written with special signs distinct from standard Coptic letters, and the character combines a horizontal stroke with a decorative flourish above a base form. Today, it is primarily of interest to scholars studying Coptic liturgical texts and epigraphy, as it provides a direct link to the computational traditions of late antique and medieval Egypt.
