Unicode Version 17.0
U+10560 "𐕠" Caucasian Albanian Letter Cayn is a letter from the Caucasian Albanian script, an ancient writing system used from the 5th to the 12th century CE to record the Caucasian Albanian language, which was spoken in what is now parts of Azerbaijan, Georgia, and Dagestan. This specific character, named Cayn, represents a consonantal sound and belongs to a script that was rediscovered and deciphered largely through Armenian manuscripts and medieval palimpsests. The Caucasian Albanian alphabet was added to the Unicode Standard in 2014 as part of version 7.0, enabling digital preservation and study of this historically significant script. The letter 𐕠 would have been used in liturgical texts and inscriptions, reflecting the cultural and religious heritage of the Caucasian Albanian people before the script fell out of use and was replaced by other writing systems.
