U+10815 "𐠕" Cypriot Syllable Me Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

𐠕

U+10815 "𐠕" Cypriot Syllable Me is a single character from the Cypriot syllabary, an ancient writing system used on the island of Cyprus from roughly the 11th to the 4th centuries BCE to record both the Eteocypriot and Arcadocypriot Greek languages. This particular grapheme represents the syllable "me" and is part of a script that consists of 55 to 60 signs, each denoting a consonant-vowel sequence, making it one of the few known syllabaries from the ancient Mediterranean world. The character itself is inscribed in the Unicode Standard under the Cypriot Syllabary block, preserving a fragment of Cypriot linguistic heritage for modern digital use, where it appears as a historical script with right-to-left orientation in its original epigraphic context.
