U+10818 "𐠘" Cypriot Syllable Mu Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
𐠘
U+10818 "𐠘" Cypriot Syllable Mu is a symbol from the Cypriot syllabary, a writing system used on the island of Cyprus from the 11th to the 4th centuries BCE primarily for the Arcadocypriot Greek dialect. This specific character represents the syllable "mu" and consists of a horizontal line with a central vertical stroke, reflecting the script’s linear, geometric design. As part of the historical Cypriot script, it was eventually displaced by the Greek alphabet, but it was encoded in Unicode to preserve and enable digital study of this ancient Mediterranean writing system.
