U+10B6D "๐ญญ" Inscriptional Pahlavi Letter Nun Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+10B6D "๐ญญ" Inscriptional Pahlavi Letter Nun is a grapheme from the Inscriptional Pahlavi script, which was used primarily in the Sasanian Empire (224–651 CE) for official and monumental inscriptions written in the Middle Persian language. This character represents the consonant sound "n," akin to the English letter N, and is part of an abjad writing system that typically omits short vowels. The letter Nun appears in various historical stone inscriptions and coin legends, reflecting the script's distinctive angular and linear forms that were adapted for carving into hard surfaces. As a component of the Unicode standard, it enables the digital preservation and study of this ancient writing system, which is essential for understanding the linguistic and administrative practices of pre-Islamic Iran.
