Unicode Version 17.0
𐛍
U+106CD "𐛍" Linear A Sign A534 is a symbol from the undeciphered script known as Linear A, which was used by the Minoan civilization on the island of Crete from approximately 1800 to 1450 BCE. This specific sign, catalogued as A534 in the standard classification of Linear A signs, most likely represents a syllabic value, though its exact phonetic or semantic meaning remains unknown due to the lack of a successful decipherment of the script as a whole. The character was encoded in Unicode to support scholarly research and digital preservation of ancient texts, allowing for the accurate representation of inscriptions found on clay tablets, seal stones, and other artifacts from Minoan archaeological sites.
