Unicode Version 17.0

𑀥

U+11025 "𑀥" Brahmi Letter Dha is a glyph representing the aspirated voiced dental stop consonant "dha" from the ancient Brahmi script, one of the earliest writing systems used to transcribe Prakrit and Sanskrit languages in South Asia. This character was encoded in Unicode version 6.0 in 2010 as part of the Brahmi block, which was added to support scholarly research into early Indic epigraphy and paleography. The letter's distinctive shape, often resembling a cross or flag with a curved base, reflects the calligraphic style of Ashokan-era inscriptions from the 3rd century BCE. Its inclusion in the Unicode Standard allows for the digital preservation and accurate representation of historical texts that record the linguistic and cultural heritage of ancient India.
