U+10617 "𐘗" Linear A Sign Ab024 Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+10617 "𐘗" Linear A Sign Ab024 is a character from the ancient Linear A script, which was used by the Minoan civilization on the island of Crete during the Bronze Age, approximately from 1800 to 1450 BCE. This particular sign, catalogued as AB024 by scholars, remains undeciphered, as Linear A has not been conclusively linked to any known language and its phonetic and semantic values are largely unknown. The character is encoded in the Unicode standard's Supplementary Multilingual Plane, within the Linear A block, allowing for digital representation and study of this mysterious writing system. Researchers primarily associate it with administrative and religious texts found on clay tablets and other artifacts, though its precise meaning continues to elude modern linguistics.
