U+1066D "𐙭" Linear A Sign A321 Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+1066D "𐙭" Linear A Sign A321 is a symbolic glyph belonging to the Linear A script, an undeciphered writing system used by the Minoan civilization on the island of Crete during the Bronze Age, primarily from approximately 1800 to 1450 BCE. This specific sign, cataloged as A321 by scholars, represents one of many phonetic or ideographic values that remain unknown due to the absence of a bilingual Rosetta Stone equivalent for Linear A. It was inscribed on clay tablets, seals, and other administrative artifacts found at archaeological sites like Knossos and Phaistos, where it likely functioned as a logogram for a commodity or a syllable. While its precise meaning is lost to history, its inclusion in the Unicode Standard allows modern researchers, linguists, and digital archivists to accurately represent and study this fragment of ancient Aegean writing in electronic texts.
