Unicode Version 17.0

𐜥

U+10725 "𐜥" Linear A Sign A645 is a symbol from the ancient writing system known as Linear A, which was used by the Minoan civilization on the island of Crete and surrounding Aegean islands from approximately 1800 to 1450 BCE. This particular sign represents one of the many undeciphered syllabic or ideographic characters in the script, which remains largely unreadable despite scholarly efforts. Its inclusion in the Unicode standard allows for its digital representation and study, aiding researchers in comparing it with related scripts like Linear B, which was used to write Mycenaean Greek and was deciphered in the mid 20th century.
