Unicode Version 17.0

𐤈

U+10908 "𐤈" Phoenician Letter Tet is a character from the Phoenician abjad, an ancient consonantal alphabet used primarily in the Levant around 1050 BCE. Representing the sound /t/, it corresponds to the ninth letter of the Phoenician alphabet and is the direct ancestor of the Greek letter Theta (Θ) and the Latin letter T. Its glyph shape, often resembling a cross or a stylized circle with a central mark, evolved from earlier Proto-Canaanite pictographs, though its original meaning is thought to have been associated with a spindle or a wheel.
