Unicode Version 17.0

𐛄

U+106C4 "𐛄" Linear A Sign A524 is a single grapheme from the undeciphered Linear A script, which was used by the Minoan civilization on Crete during the Bronze Age, primarily from approximately 1800 to 1450 BCE. This particular sign, cataloged as A524 in the standard sign list, represents one of the many syllabic or ideographic symbols found on clay tablets and other artifacts unearthed at sites such as Knossos and Phaistos, though its precise phonetic value or meaning remains unknown due to the script's current state of partial decipherment. Its inclusion in the Unicode Standard since version 8.0 in 2015 allows for digital representation and scholarly study of this ancient writing system, helping to preserve and analyze the linguistic heritage of the Minoan culture.
