Unicode Version 17.0

𐼕

U+10F15 "𐼕" Old Sogdian Letter Sadhe is a glyph from the Old Sogdian script, an ancient alphabet used primarily from the 3rd to the 8th century CE for writing the Sogdian language, an Eastern Iranian tongue spoken in Central Asia along the Silk Road. This specific letter represents the sound equivalent to the Semitic "tsade" or "sadhe," typically a voiceless sibilant affricate or fricative, and it was adapted from the Aramaic script as part of the broader transmission of writing systems across the region. As a key component of the Old Sogdian abjad, it appears in manuscripts and inscriptions that document Sogdian commerce, religion, and culture, preserving a vital link to the linguistic heritage of the ancient Silk Road civilizations.
