Unicode Version 17.0
𐰁
U+10C01 "𐰁" Old Turkic Letter Yenisei A is a specific glyph from the Orkhon script, which was used by ancient Turkic peoples in the 8th and 9th centuries to inscribe monumental epigraphs, most notably those found in the Yenisei River basin. This particular character represents an "a" sound and is distinguished from the standard Orkhon A by its variant form, often associated with the Yenisei dialect or regional scribal tradition. It is encoded in the Unicode standard under the Old Turkic block, allowing for accurate digital representation and study of this historical writing system, which preserves invaluable linguistic and cultural records of early Turkic civilizations.
