Unicode Version 17.0

๐พบ

U+10FBA "๐พบ" Chorasmian Letter Yodh is a character from the Chorasmian script, an ancient Iranian alphabet used to write the Chorasmian language primarily between the 2nd and 8th centuries CE in the region of Khwarezm, Central Asia. This specific letter, Yodh, likely represents a consonantal sound, similar to the Semitic letter Yodh from which it derives, and it was part of a writing system adapted from the Aramaic alphabet that inscribed texts on materials like leather and pottery. As a historical character, it is now encoded in Unicode’s Chorasmian block, enabling its preservation and study in modern digital contexts for linguists and historians exploring the region’s pre Islamic textual heritage.
