Unicode Version 17.0

𐚞

U+1069E "𐚞" Linear A Sign A370 is a glyph representing a specific syllabic or ideographic sign from the undeciphered Linear A script, which was used by the Minoan civilization on Crete during the Bronze Age, primarily between approximately 1800 and 1450 BCE. This sign, cataloged as A370 in the standard classification by archaeologists, is one of many symbols found on clay tablets and other artifacts from sites like Knossos and Phaistos, often associated with administrative records such as inventories of goods or agricultural produce. Due to the lack of a known decipherment for Linear A, the exact phonetic value or meaning of A370 remains unknown, though it is studied alongside related scripts like Linear B to hypothesize about Minoan language and culture.
