U+11F41 "𑽁" Kawi Sign Killer is a written mark used in the Kawi script, an ancient writing system from Southeast Asia that historically transcribed Old Javanese, Balinese, and Sanskrit. This sign functions as a punctuation or orthographic device that indicates the omission, removal, or killing of a preceding consonant or syllable, acting similarly to a cancellation or deletion marker in manuscript traditions. Its inclusion in Unicode helps preserve and digitally encode the unique textual features of Kawi manuscripts, allowing scholars to accurately represent the script's conventional usage of such editorial notations.
