U+109AA "𐦪" Meroitic Cursive Letter Ne is a specific glyph from the Meroitic script, an ancient writing system used in the Kingdom of Kush (located in present-day Sudan) from around the 3rd century BCE to the 4th century CE. This cursive variant of the letter represents the syllable or sound "ne" and was part of a writing system derived from Egyptian hieroglyphs, though it functioned as an alphabet rather than a logographic script.
