U+1074D "𐝍" Linear A Sign A710 W Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+1074D "𐝍" Linear A Sign A710 W is a symbol from the undeciphered Linear A script used by the Minoan civilization of Bronze Age Crete, representing a sign cataloged as A710 with the phonetic value or logographic function designated as "W." This character, part of the Supplementary Linear A block added to Unicode in 2021, belongs to a corpus of inscriptions found primarily on clay tablets and religious objects from sites like Knossos and Phaistos, where it likely represented a syllabic sign or a numerical or commodity marker in administrative records. Despite extensive study, the exact meaning and pronunciation of this sign remain unknown because Linear A has not been successfully deciphered, leaving U+1074D as a tangible but enigmatic link to a lost language.
