Unicode Version 17.0
U+1070E "𐜎" Linear A Sign A613 is a specific graphic symbol from the undeciphered writing system of the Minoan civilization, known as Linear A, which was used primarily on the island of Crete and other Aegean islands during the Bronze Age from roughly 1800 to 1450 BCE. This character is part of the Unicode Standard's Supplementary Multilingual Plane, specifically within the Linear A block, which was added to support academic research and digital preservation of ancient scripts. The sign is cataloged as A613 in the standard corpus of Linear A signs, though its precise phonetic value and meaning remain unknown since the script has not yet been conclusively deciphered. Its inclusion in Unicode allows scholars to encode, display, and share texts containing this rare and historically significant script digitally.
