U+106F9 "𐛹" Linear A Sign A586 Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+106F9 "𐛹" Linear A Sign A586 is an individual grapheme from the Linear A script, an undeciphered writing system used by the Minoan civilization on Crete during the Bronze Age, primarily from approximately 1800 to 1450 BCE. This specific sign, cataloged as A586, represents one of the many syllabic or ideographic symbols that appear on clay tablets and other artifacts, which were likely used for administrative or religious record keeping. Because Linear A remains largely unreadable, the exact phonetic value or meaning of A586 is unknown, though it is part of a corpus that scholars continue to study for patterns connecting it to later scripts like Linear B. Its inclusion in Unicode helps preserve and make this ancient sign accessible for modern digital research and typographic representation.
