Unicode Version 17.0
𐦲
U+109B2 "𐦲" Meroitic Cursive Letter Ka is a script character used in the Meroitic cursive writing system, which was employed in the Kingdom of Kush (modern-day Sudan and parts of Egypt) from roughly the 3rd century BCE to the 5th century CE. This letter represents the consonant sound "k" and is part of a script derived from Egyptian hieroglyphs but adapted for the Meroitic language, which remains only partially deciphered. The cursive form was typically written with a reed pen on papyrus or other surfaces for everyday documents, distinguished from the more monumental Meroitic hieroglyphic script.
