𐼛

U+10F1B "𐼛" Old Sogdian Letter Final Taw is a grapheme from the Old Sogdian script, an ancient writing system used primarily for the Sogdian language, an Eastern Iranian language once spoken across Central Asia along the Silk Road. This specific character represents the final form of the letter "taw", which corresponds to the sound /t/ or /θ/ and was employed in word-final positions to distinguish it from the standard medial or initial forms of the same letter. As part of the Old Sogdian block in the Unicode Standard, it enables modern encoding and digital preservation of manuscripts, inscriptions, and texts from the 4th to 8th centuries, offering a window into the linguistic and cultural exchanges of that historic region.
