U+10C1B "𐰛" Old Turkic Letter Yenisei Aek is a specific glyph from the Old Turkic script, used primarily to write the Old Turkic language in the Yenisei region of Siberia, distinct from the more common Orkhon variant. This letter represents a vowel sound, typically transcribed as "ä" or "æ", and is recognized as part of the "Old Turkic" block in Unicode, which was added to support the digital representation of ancient Turkic inscriptions.
