Unicode Version 17.0

𐜄

U+10704 "𐜄" Linear A Sign A601 is a character from the undeciphered Linear A script, an ancient writing system used by the Minoan civilization on Crete during the Bronze Age, primarily from approximately 1800 to 1450 BCE. This specific sign, designated as A601 within the standard corpus of Linear A syllabic and ideographic symbols, represents a yet unknown phonetic value or logographic meaning, as the script remains largely unread despite archaeological discoveries of clay tablets and artifacts bearing these inscriptions. Its inclusion in the Unicode standard ensures digital preservation and scholarly access for continued research into Minoan language and culture.
