Unicode Version 17.0

𐠒

U+10812 "𐠒" Cypriot Syllable Lo is a symbol from the Cypriot syllabary, a writing system used on the island of Cyprus from roughly the 11th to the 4th centuries BCE to record the Arcadocypriot dialect of ancient Greek. This particular glyph represents the syllable "lo" and is part of a collection of 55 signs that were typically inscribed from right to left, often found on clay tablets, stone monuments, and metal objects. The Cypriot syllabary is historically significant because it descends from the older Linear C script and serves as a key linguistic link between the Bronze Age Aegean scripts and the later Greek alphabet, providing valuable insights into the language and culture of ancient Cyprus.
