U+106AC "𐚬" Linear A Sign A412-Vas is a symbol from the undeciphered Linear A script, which was used by the Minoan civilization on Crete and other Aegean islands from roughly 1800 to 1450 BCE. This particular sign, cataloged as A412 and associated with the word "VAS," likely represents something related to a vessel or container, as suggested by its descriptive label. It belongs to the Linear A script block within the Supplementary Multilingual Plane of Unicode, allowing scholars and enthusiasts to digitally preserve and study this ancient writing system.
