U+10FB "჻" Georgian Paragraph Separator Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
჻
U+10FB "჻" Georgian Paragraph Separator is a historic punctuation mark used in the Georgian script to denote a major division in text, functioning similarly to a modern paragraph break or section divider. Found primarily in medieval Georgian manuscripts and early printed works, this symbol appears as a vertical line with a horizontal stroke, and it served to visually separate larger thematic units or chapters before the adoption of standard spacing and indentation conventions. Its inclusion in Unicode preserves a key element of Georgian literary heritage, allowing for accurate digital representation of historical texts and scholarly transcriptions.
