Unicode Version 17.0

𐼣

U+10F23 "𐼣" Old Sogdian Number Twenty is a numeral from the Old Sogdian script, which was used to write the Sogdian language, an Eastern Iranian language spoken in Central Asia from roughly the 4th to the 10th centuries CE. This character represents the number twenty and belongs to the Old Sogdian block of Unicode, which was added to the standard in version 11.0 in 2018 to support historical texts from the Silk Road region. As a numeric symbol, "𐼣" reflects the base-10 counting system of the Sogdian civilization, often found in commercial and religious documents on materials like leather, paper, and silk. Its inclusion in Unicode helps preserve and digitally render the writing system of a culture that played a key role in transmitting Buddhism, Manichaeism, and trade across Asia.
