Unicode Version 17.0

𐘺

U+1063A "𐘺" Linear A Sign Ab070 is a character from the undeciphered Linear A script, which was used in Minoan civilization on the island of Crete and other Aegean islands from roughly 1800 to 1450 BCE. This specific sign, cataloged as AB070 in the standard syllabary classification, is believed to represent a syllabic value, though its exact phonetic equivalent remains unknown because the underlying Minoan language has not been conclusively deciphered. It appears in administrative and religious inscriptions found primarily on clay tablets and other artifacts, often alongside numeric signs, suggesting it was part of a system used for record-keeping and accounting.
