U+1068F "𐚏" Linear A Sign A355 Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+1068F "𐚏" Linear A Sign A355 is a script sign from the Linear A writing system, which was used by the Minoan civilization on the island of Crete during the Bronze Age, primarily between approximately 1800 and 1450 BCE. This specific sign remains undeciphered, as Linear A has not been fully translated and does not correspond directly to any known language, though it is widely believed to represent a syllabic or ideographic value. The character is part of the Unicode Standard's Linear A block, which was added to facilitate digital representation and scholarly study of this ancient script. Archaeologists and linguists continue to study signs like A355 to better understand Minoan administration, economy, and culture, as the inscriptions are often found on clay tablets, seal stones, and religious objects.
