Unicode Version 17.0
ð‘—”
U+115D4 "ð‘—”" Siddham Section Mark with Septuple Crescents is a typographic punctuation mark used in the Siddham script, an ancient Indian writing system historically employed for writing Sanskrit and for Buddhist manuscripts, particularly in East Asia. It functions as a section divider or punctuation within Siddham texts, visually distinguished by its unique design featuring seven crescent-shaped marks arranged in a specific pattern. This character is part of the Siddham Unicode block, which was added to the standard to support the transcription of religious and literary works. Its use helps structure the flow of text, much like modern punctuation, and reflects the script's rich heritage in ritual and scholarly contexts.
