U+10AD6 "𐫖" Manichaean Letter Mem Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+10AD6 "𐫖" Manichaean Letter Mem is a glyph from the Manichaean script, an alphabet historically used to write the Middle Iranian languages of the Manichaean religion, which spread along the Silk Road from the 3rd to the 10th centuries CE. This letter represents the sound "m" and is the counterpart to the Semitic letter Mem, reflecting its origin in the Aramaic script from which the Manichaean alphabet was derived. The character is part of the Manichaean block in Unicode, enabling digital preservation and study of Manichaean manuscripts that contain religious texts, hymns, and liturgical works. Its inclusion in the standard supports scholarly work on this extinct but historically significant writing system, which was used across regions from North Africa to Central Asia.
