U+106FB "𐛻" Linear A Sign A588 is a glyph from the undeciphered script of the Minoan civilization, known as Linear A, which was used primarily on the island of Crete and other Aegean islands from approximately 1800 to 1450 BCE. This particular sign, cataloged as A588 in the standard corpus of Linear A symbols, represents a syllabic or ideographic element whose precise phonetic value or meaning remains unknown due to the lack of a bilingual text or comprehensive decipherment.
