U+10A2 "Ⴂ" Georgian Capital Letter Gan Unicode Character

U+10A2 "Ⴂ" Georgian Capital Letter Gan is a character from the Georgian script's Asomtavruli alphabet, representing the sound /g/ and serving as the capital form of the modern Mkhedruli letter "გ". Historically used in medieval Georgian manuscripts for titles and inscriptions, this glyph is part of the Unicode block for Georgian letters, supporting digital text rendering and historical preservation of the language. It is primarily employed in academic, liturgical, or decorative contexts today, as modern Georgian writing typically uses the lower-case Mkhedruli script without case distinctions.
