Unicode Version 17.0
𐍦
U+10366 "𐍦" Old Permic Letter Shchooi is a letter from the Old Permic script, also known as Abur, which was used in the 14th and 15th centuries to write the Komi language of the Perm region in northeastern European Russia. This character represents a consonant sound similar to the modern Russian "щ" (shch), making it a significant part of the alphabet created by the missionary Saint Stephen of Perm to facilitate Christian texts in the local vernacular. It falls within the Old Permic block of Unicode, which was added to support the study and digital preservation of this historical script, and its glyph typically appears as a distinct, angular symbol reflecting the script's adaptation of both Greek and Cyrillic influences.
