U+106D3 "𐛓" Linear A Sign A540 is a symbol from the undeciphered Linear A writing system used by the Minoan civilization on Crete during the Bronze Age between roughly 1800 and 1450 BCE. This specific sign is catalogued as an abbreviation in the standard corpus, where its phonetic value and meaning remain unknown, as no known script has been successfully verified to decode Linear A, which is considered a distinct language unrelated to Mycenaean Greek. The sign is part of a set of characters that scholars study through archaeological artifacts like clay tablets and vessels, where it often appears in accounting contexts.
