Unicode Version 17.0
𐬉
U+10B09 "𐬉" Avestan Letter Ee is a character from the Avestan script, a writing system used to record the Avestan language, which is the sacred liturgical language of Zoroastrianism. This specific character represents the long vowel sound "ee" and was historically employed in religious manuscripts to transcribe the hymns and rituals of the Zoroastrian faith. The Avestan alphabet, like this letter, reads from right to left and was derived from earlier Semitic scripts, with the entire block being added to Unicode in 2009 as part of version 5.2 to preserve this ancient scholarly and religious tradition.
