U+1074B "𐝋" Linear A Sign A709-4 L4 Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
𐝋
U+1074B "𐝋" Linear A Sign A709-4 L4 is a graphical symbol from the undeciphered Linear A script, which was used in Minoan civilization on the island of Crete during the Bronze Age, primarily between 1800 and 1450 BCE. Part of the "Linear A" block in the Unicode Standard, this particular sign, cataloged as A709-4 L4, likely represents a syllabic or ideographic character, though its precise phonetic value or meaning remains unknown because the script has not been fully deciphered. Its inclusion in Unicode allows scholars and digital humanists to preserve, study, and typeset this ancient writing system, which is distinct from the later Linear B script used for Mycenaean Greek.
