U+10760 "𐝠" Linear A Sign A800 Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

𐝠

U+10760 "𐝠" Linear A Sign A800 is a specific written symbol from the undeciphered Linear A script, which was used by the Minoan civilization on the island of Crete during the Bronze Age, roughly from 1800 to 1450 BCE. This particular sign, cataloged as A800, remains unknown in meaning or phonetic value due to the lack of a bilingual Rosetta Stone equivalent, though it likely represented a syllabic sound, a logographic word, or a numerical token within administrative or ritual texts. Its inclusion in the Unicode standard at version 13.0 in 2020 ensures that scholars and linguists can digitally encode, share, and analyze this ancient inscription alongside other Linear A signs, aiding ongoing efforts to decipher the language of the Minoans.
