U+1101D "๐" Brahmi Letter Tta Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+1101D "๐" Brahmi Letter Tta is a glyph representing a specific consonant from the ancient Brahmi script, which served as the ancestor for many writing systems across South and Southeast Asia. This particular character denotes the retroflex stop sound "แนญa," distinguished by the tongue curling back against the palate, and it forms part of the Brahmi block in Unicode introduced for scholarly text representation. As a historical script primarily used for inscribing early Prakrit and Sanskrit texts between the 3rd century BCE and the 5th century CE, the letter Tta enables digital preservation and study of ancient epigraphs and manuscripts. Its inclusion in Unicode supports academic research, linguistic analysis, and digital typography for this foundational writing system.
