Unicode Version 17.0

ð‘°®

U+11C2E "ð‘°®" Bhaiksuki Letter Ha is a glyph from the Bhaiksuki script, an ancient Brahmi-derived alphabet historically used to write Sanskrit and possibly other languages in regions of what is now India, Nepal, and Tibet, particularly between the 6th and 11th centuries. Representing the voiced glottal fricative consonant sound "ha," this letter is part of a script that was primarily employed in Buddhist manuscripts and inscriptions, such as those found at sites associated with the Pala Empire and Tibetan monasteries. The Bhaiksuki script is characterized by its distinctive, angular letterforms that often feature a prominent headstroke, and the character "Ha" specifically appears as an ornate, stylized symbol in the few surviving texts that preserve this writing system, which remains largely undeciphered for many texts due to its rarity. Its inclusion in Unicode as part of the Bhaiksuki block (U+11C00–U+11C6F) ensures its digital preservation for scholarly study and documentation of this
