Unicode Version 17.0

𑱽

U+11C7D "𑱽" Marchen Letter Na is part of the Marchen script, an ancient abugida historically used in the Tibetan Bon tradition and for writing the extinct Zhang-Zhung language. This specific character represents the consonant sound "na" and belongs to a set of syllabic letters that encode both inherent vowels and modified vowel sounds through diacritical marks. The Marchen script, which is considered a precursor or sibling to the modern Tibetan script, was primarily employed in religious and ritual manuscripts from the Shangshung kingdom before falling into disuse. Today, this character is preserved in Unicode to support digital text representation and scholarly research into the cultural and linguistic heritage of the Himalayan region.
