Unicode Version 17.0
ð‘™¡
U+11661 "ð‘™¡" Mongolian Rotated Birga is a decorative punctuation mark or ornament used in the Mongolian script, typically appearing in historical and liturgical texts. Unlike the standard birga, which is oriented vertically, this rotated variant is turned sideways, often serving as a section divider or a ceremonial glyph to mark the beginning of a new passage or important text segment. It belongs to the Mongolian Supplement block and is part of the broader system of script-specific marks employed in traditional Mongolian writing, particularly in manuscript and print traditions influenced by Buddhist and imperial scribal practices.
