Unicode Version 17.0
𑲳
U+11CB3 "𑲳" Marchen Vowel Sign E is a combining diacritical mark used in the Marchen script, which was historically employed to write the Zhangzhung language, a now extinct Tibeto-Burman language of western Tibet. This character modifies a consonant letter by indicating the vowel sound "e" that follows it, functioning as an inherent vowel sign rather than an independent letter. It belongs to the Marchen block of Unicode, which was added to the standard in 2018 as part of version 11.0, supporting the preservation and digital representation of this ancient script used in Bon religious texts.
