U+10A75 "𐩵" Old South Arabian Letter Daleth Unicode Character

U+10A75 "𐩵" Old South Arabian Letter Daleth is a script character from the Old South Arabian abjad, a writing system used in the ancient kingdoms of Yemen, such as Saba, Qataban, and Hadramawt. This letter represents a voiced dental fricative sound, roughly equivalent to the "th" in the English word "this" or the Arabic letter "ḏāl". Its name "Daleth" reflects its origin from the Proto Sinaitic script, where it likely symbolized a door, and it is directly related to the Hebrew letter Dalet and the Greek Delta. Inscriptions containing this character typically date from the 9th century BCE to the 6th century CE, carved into stone or metal for monumental texts, religious dedications, and royal decrees.
