U+10746 "𐝆" Linear A Sign A707 J Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+10746 "𐝆" Linear A Sign A707 J is a symbol from the Linear A script, an undeciphered writing system used by the Minoan civilization on the island of Crete during the Bronze Age, primarily from approximately 1800 to 1450 BCE. This specific sign, designated as A707 and given the alphabetical annotation "J" by scholars, belongs to a category of syllabic or ideographic signs whose phonetic value and meaning remain unknown, as Linear A has not yet been reliably deciphered. Found on clay tablets, seal stones, and other artifacts recovered from archaeological sites such as Knossos and Phaistos, this character represents one of the many enigmatic components of a writing system that likely served administrative and religious purposes. Its inclusion in the Unicode Standard ensures that researchers and digital humanists can accurately encode, study, and preserve this fragment of ancient Aegean communication.
