Unicode Version 17.0

𑼡

U+11F21 "𑼡" Kawi Letter Ta is a specific representation of the consonant "ta" from the Kawi script, an ancient abugida historically used to write Old Javanese, Balinese, Sundanese, and other languages of Maritime Southeast Asia. This script descended from the Brahmi family and was employed primarily in inscriptions and manuscripts from the 8th to the 16th centuries across Java, Bali, and Sumatra. The glyph symbolizes the unvoiced, unaspirated dental stop sound /t̪/ and is part of Unicode's broader effort to preserve and digitally encode historical writing systems. Its inclusion in the Unicode Standard allows for modern digital representation of classical texts and supports scholarly work in epigraphy and historical linguistics.
