U+10C0A "𐰊" Old Turkic Letter Yenisei Ab Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+10C0A "𐰊" Old Turkic Letter Yenisei Ab is a glyph from the Old Turkic script, specifically representing a sound and letter variant found in inscriptions from the Yenisei region of Siberia. This character corresponds to a consonantal sound used in the Old Turkic language, which was spoken by early Turkic peoples and recorded in runic-like inscriptions dating from approximately the 8th to 10th centuries. The Yenisei variant of the script often exhibits distinct letter shapes compared to the more common Orkhon variety, and this particular character is the equivalent of the letter “b” or “ab,” contributing to the phonetic transcription of historical Turkic texts. Its inclusion in Unicode helps preserve and digitally represent this ancient writing system for scholarly study and cultural heritage.
