U+10730 "𐜰" Linear A Sign A658 is a symbol from the ancient Linear A script of Minoan Crete, which remains undeciphered and is believed to represent a syllabic or ideographic value within the administrative and religious texts of the Bronze Age civilization. This specific sign, cataloged as A658 in the corpus of Linear A inscriptions, appears on clay tablets and other artifacts primarily from sites like Knossos and Hagia Triada, though its exact phonetic or semantic meaning is unknown.
