Unicode Version 17.0

ð‘°¢

U+11C22 "ð‘°¢" Bhaiksuki Letter Pa is a character from the Bhaiksuki script, an ancient abugida historically used in parts of India and Central Asia primarily for writing Buddhist texts in Sanskrit and occasionally other languages. This particular letter represents the sound "pa" and is formed by a distinctive curved stroke reminiscent of other Brahmic scripts, reflecting the script's place in the broader Brahmi-derived writing family. Bhaiksuki itself, named after the Bauddha (Buddhist) ascetics known as Bhikshus, was employed from roughly the 11th to 14th centuries and features rounded, flowing glyphs that distinguish it from contemporary scripts like Siddham or Tibetan.
