U+10CD "Ⴭ" Georgian Capital Letter Aen Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+10CD "Ⴭ" Georgian Capital Letter Aen is a relatively rare and specialized glyph within the Georgian script, representing the uppercase form of the letter "aen" from the Asomtavruli or "Mrgvlovani" alphabet, the oldest monumental script of the Georgian language. This character is used primarily in historical or liturgical contexts, such as in ancient manuscripts and inscriptions, and is distinct from the modern Mkhedruli script due to its rounded, uncial-like shape. Introduced in Unicode version 6.1, it is part of a set of capital letters that enable the proper representation of Georgian text in all-caps or title case when required, although it is not commonly seen in everyday digital communication.
