U+10B79 "𐭹" Inscriptional Pahlavi Number Two Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+10B79 "𐭹" Inscriptional Pahlavi Number Two is a numeral used in the Inscriptional Pahlavi script, which was employed in Iran and surrounding regions from around the 2nd century BCE to the 6th century CE, primarily for inscriptions on stone, metal, and clay artifacts. This character represents the number two and is part of a numeric system that, like many ancient scripts, often combined symbols for larger numbers. The Inscriptional Pahlavi script itself is a cursive writing system derived from the Aramaic alphabet, and its numerals were adapted for administrative and commemorative purposes. While this specific character is now primarily of interest to historians and linguists studying ancient Middle Eastern scripts, it was assigned its Unicode code point in 2009 as part of the Inscriptional Pahlavi block, allowing for its digital representation and preservation in modern text encoding.
