U+11956 "ð‘¥–" Dives Akuru Digit Six Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+11956 "ð‘¥–" Dives Akuru Digit Six is a numeral from the Dives Akuru script, an ancient alphasyllabary historically used to write the Maldivian language in the Maldives and parts of the Lakshadweep islands before the adoption of the Thaana script. This specific character represents the numeric value six, forming part of a decimal digit system encoded in the Unicode Standard under the Dives Akuru block, which was added in September 2021 with version 14.0 to preserve this extinct script for scholarly and cultural applications. The digit's design reflects the calligraphic style of Dives Akuru, characterized by rounded strokes and vertical alignment typical of Brahmic-derived scripts, making it a valuable artifact for linguists and historians studying the region's pre Islamic writing traditions.
