Unicode Version 17.0
U+105A8 "𐖨" Vithkuqi Small Letter Ka is a character from the Vithkuqi script, an alphabet historically used to write the Vithkuqi language, an extinct Albanian dialect, with its modern revival efforts focusing on the Vithkuqi script’s inclusion in Unicode to preserve cultural heritage. This specific glyph represents the small or lowercase form of the letter "Ka", which corresponds to the sound /k/ in the Vithkuqi phonological system. As part of the Vithkuqi block, which was added to Unicode in version 14.0 in 2021, this character allows for digital representation and documentation of the script, aiding scholarly research and revitalization initiatives. Its design follows the distinctive cursive style of the original 19th-century alphabet created by Naum Veqilharxhi, featuring a curved, flowing shape that distinguishes it from other scripts in the same block.
