Unicode Version 17.0

𐛑

U+106D1 "𐛑" Linear A Sign A538 is a symbol from the Linear A script, an undeciphered writing system used by the Minoan civilization on the island of Crete during the Bronze Age, roughly between 1800 and 1450 BCE. This particular sign, cataloged as A538, represents one of the many syllabic or ideographic characters found in the corpus of Linear A inscriptions, which were primarily used for administrative and religious records on clay tablets and other artifacts. Because Linear A remains undeciphered, the exact phonetic value or meaning of this specific sign is not known with certainty, though scholars classify it within the broader repertoire of signs that likely conveyed syllables or logograms tied to the Minoan language.
