U+10695 "𐚕" Linear A Sign A361 Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+10695 "𐚕" Linear A Sign A361 is a character from the undeciphered Linear A script used by the Minoan civilization of Crete, primarily during the Bronze Age from approximately 1800 to 1450 BCE. Although its precise phonetic value and meaning remain unknown, its classification as Sign A361 places it within the corpus of syllabic signs or logograms that appear on clay tablets, seals, and other artifacts from sites such as Knossos and Malia. This sign, like others in the Linear A repertoire, is typically interpreted by scholars through comparison with the later, partially deciphered Linear B script, though direct equivalents are not always clear. The inclusion of this character in the Unicode standard ensures that researchers and linguists can digitally represent and study the script, aiding efforts to unlock the language and culture of the Minoan world.
