U+110BF "𑂿" Kaithi Double Section Mark is a punctuation symbol used in the historical Kaithi script, which was employed primarily for writing various languages in northern and eastern India, such as Maithili, Bhojpuri, and Urdu. Its function is to serve as a text delimiter, specifically indicating the end of a major section of a manuscript or a significant break within the text, analogous to a larger paragraph or chapter mark. This character is part of the Kaithi block of the Unicode Standard, encoded to support the digitization of historical documents that utilized this script. The double section mark is visually distinct, typically appearing as two vertical or slanted strokes, helping scribes and readers navigate the structure of handwritten or printed texts by providing clear, hierarchical visual cues for section boundaries.
