U+11C0E "ð‘°Ž" Bhaiksuki Letter Ka Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
ð‘°Ž
U+11C0E "ð‘°Ž" Bhaiksuki Letter Ka is a glyph from the Bhaiksuki script, an ancient Brahmic writing system historically used in parts of India and Central Asia, particularly for writing Buddhist texts in Sanskrit. It represents the consonant sound "ka," the first consonant in the Bhaiksuki alphabet, and its rounded, flowing form is characteristic of the script's distinctive style, which bridges features of earlier Gupta script and later Tibetan-derived writing systems. This character was added to the Unicode Standard in 2018 as part of a scholarly effort to facilitate the digital preservation and study of rare historical scripts, allowing researchers to accurately encode and share manuscripts from the Bhaiksuki tradition.
