U+10745 "𐝅" Linear A Sign A706 H Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

𐝅

U+10745 "𐝅" Linear A Sign A706 H is a symbol from the undeciphered Linear A script, which was used by the Minoan civilization on Crete during the Bronze Age, primarily from around 1800 to 1450 BCE. This particular sign, cataloged as A706 by scholars and given the conventional Latin transcription "H," represents one of the many syllabic or ideographic characters that appear on clay tablets, sealings, and other artifacts, primarily from administrative contexts. As Linear A has not yet been securely deciphered, the exact phonetic value or meaning of *a706 remains unknown, though it is often grouped within a set of signs that may denote syllables or phonetic modifiers in the Minoan language. Its inclusion in the Unicode standard allows for digital representation and research of this ancient writing system, aiding epigraphers and historians in the study of Minoan culture and trade networks.
