U+10689 "𐚉" Linear A Sign A349 Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+10689 "𐚉" Linear A Sign A349 is a part of the Linear A script, an undeciphered writing system used by the Minoan civilization on the island of Crete during the Bronze Age, roughly from 1800 to 1450 BCE. This specific sign, cataloged as A349 by scholars, is classified as a syllabic or ideographic symbol, though its exact phonetic value or meaning remains unknown due to the lack of a Rosetta Stone equivalent for the script. It belongs to the Unicode block for Linear A, which was added to the standard in 2014 to support digital representation and research into this ancient writing system, and its appearance typically consists of a simple geometric or linear shape characteristic of Minoan inscriptions found on clay tablets, seals, and other artifacts.
