U+1086D "𐡭" Palmyrene Letter Final Nun Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

𐡭

U+1086D "𐡭" Palmyrene Letter Final Nun is a special glyph from the Palmyrene script, an ancient Semitic alphabet used in the city of Palmyra in Syria from around the 1st century BCE to the 3rd century CE. This character represents a contextual or final form of the letter "nun," which is used only when the letter appears at the end of a word, much like the final forms found in other Semitic scripts such as Hebrew or Arabic. Its design is distinct from the standard form of Palmyrene nun, featuring a longer downward stroke or a different tail shape to mark the word final position. This character is part of the Unicode block for Palmyrene, which was added to the standard in 2014 to support the digital encoding of this historical script and aid in the preservation and study of Palmyrene inscriptions and texts.
