U+10B3E "𐬾" Large Two Rings over One Ring Punctuation Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+10B3E "𐬾" Large Two Rings over One Ring Punctuation is a specialized symbol belonging to the script block for the ancient Avestan language, which was used to write Zoroastrian religious texts. This punctuation mark functions as a visual separator within manuscripts, likely indicating a division between textual sections or clauses, and its design features two concentric rings stacked above a single ring. While its exact syntactic role in Avestan writing is not fully understood due to the fragmentary nature of surviving texts, it is part of a broader set of punctuation marks that helped organize sacred literature. The character is encoded in the Unicode Standard to preserve this early writing system for digital use, enabling scholars to represent historical scripts with precision.
