U+10959 "𐥙" Sidetic Letter N26 Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

𐥙

U+10959 "𐥙" Sidetic Letter N26 is a script character representing a specific letter from the Sidetic alphabet, an ancient script used between the 5th and 3rd centuries BCE in the region of Sidet, in what is now southwestern Turkey. This particular character corresponds to the twenty-sixth glyph in the Sidetic script, which was derived from a variant of the Greek alphabet but adapted to record the local Sidetic language, a poorly understood Anatolian dialect. The letter N26 is one of several characters in the Sidetic block of Unicode, added to support the digital encoding and preservation of this rare historical writing system, though only a few inscriptions have survived. Its inclusion allows scholars and linguists to accurately represent, study, and share textual evidence of this extinct language in modern computing environments.
