U+11019 "ð‘€™" Brahmi Letter Cha Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

ð‘€™

U+11019 "ð‘€™" Brahmi Letter Cha is a character in the Brahmi script, one of the oldest writing systems of South Asia, and it represents the aspirated voiceless palatal stop consonant "cha" as used in ancient inscriptions and manuscripts, primarily from the Indian subcontinent around the 3rd century BCE to the 5th century CE. This character is part of the Unicode Brahmi block, which was encoded to support scholarly research, digital preservation, and modern typographic representation of historical texts, including early Buddhist and Ashokan edicts. The glyph typically depicts a cross- or plus-shaped symbol with a curved stroke, reflecting the characteristic Brahmi sound inventory where each consonant implicitly carries an inherent vowel "a" unless modified by diacritics.
