U+10536 "𐔶" Caucasian Albanian Letter Eyn Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+10536 "𐔶" Caucasian Albanian Letter Eyn is a letter from the Caucasian Albanian alphabet, an ancient script used primarily between the 5th and 12th centuries to write the Caucasian Albanian language, which is the precursor to modern Udi. This specific character represents a voiced pharyngeal or glottal sound, similar to the Arabic letter "ayn" from which its name derives. The script was rediscovered in the 20th century through medieval Armenian manuscripts and inscriptions, and it was officially encoded in the Unicode Standard as part of the Caucasian Albanian block to support historical and linguistic research. The letter Eyn appears in a cursive-like style with a curved vertical stroke and a leftward hook, reflecting the distinctive paleographic features of this historically significant alphabet.
