U+1059A "𐖚" Vithkuqi Small Letter Ce is a character from the Vithkuqi alphabet, an artificially constructed script created in the 19th century by the Albanian scholar Naum Veqilharxhi to write the Albanian language. This small letter "Ce" corresponds to the sound /ts/ in the Albanian phonetic system, and it is part of a set of characters that Veqilharxhi designed to be distinct from both the Latin and Greek alphabets, aiming to promote Albanian national identity and literacy. The character was included in Unicode’s Vithkuqi block (U+10570–U+105BF) with version 14.0 in September 2021, ensuring its digital preservation for historical and linguistic study.
