Unicode Version 17.0

𐪐

U+10A90 "𐪐" Old North Arabian Letter Feh is a glyph from the ancient script used in the Arabian Peninsula from roughly the 8th century BCE to the 4th century CE, primarily for inscriptions in the Dadanitic and Taymanitic languages. This letter represents the consonant sound /f/, similar to the English "f", and it belongs to the Old North Arabian block, which was added to Unicode in version 7.0 in 2014 to facilitate the digital encoding of these historically significant writing systems. The script is written from right to left and is a direct ancestor of the modern Arabic alphabet, making Feh a key link in the evolution of Semitic writing. Today, it is mainly of interest to epigraphers, historians, and linguists studying pre-Islamic Arabian cultures and their inscriptions.
