U+1069C "𐚜" Linear A Sign A368 Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+1069C "𐚜" Linear A Sign A368 is a symbol from the undeciphered Linear A script used by the Minoan civilization on Crete during the Bronze Age, specifically between approximately 1800 and 1450 BCE. This particular sign, cataloged as A368 in standard classifications, remains one of many Linear A characters whose phonetic value and meaning have not been securely identified, as the script has resisted comprehensive decipherment despite significant archaeological study. It belongs to a corpus of over 1,400 known Linear A inscriptions, primarily found on clay tablets, seals, and offerings, which likely record an unknown language unrelated to later Greek. While some signs, including A368, may represent syllabic or ideographic elements, their exact function within the administrative and religious contexts of Minoan society continues to be a subject of scholarly debate.
