U+1190C "𑤌" Dives Akuru Letter Ka is a character from the Dives Akuru script, an historical writing system used primarily in the Maldives before the adoption of Thaana. This specific glyph represents the consonant "ka," the first letter in the Dives Akuru alphabet, and it functions as a syllabic base that can be combined with various vowel diacritics to denote different sounds. Dives Akuru was employed for writing early Dhivehi and some Sanskrit texts, and its inclusion in Unicode helps preserve the linguistic heritage of the Maldivian islands.
