Unicode Version 17.0

𑽌

U+11F4C "𑽌" Kawi Punctuation Circle is a distinctive punctuation mark from the Kawi script, an ancient writing system used across the Maritime Southeast Asian archipelago from roughly the 8th to the 16th century. This character appears as a small circle and functioned as a visible divider or separator within Kawi texts, often used to mark the end of a sentence or to separate different sections of prose on inscriptions made on stone or metal. Its inclusion in the Unicode Standard allows scholars and digital typographers to accurately represent historical manuscripts and epigraphic records, preserving a key element of the visual and grammatical structure of Old Javanese, Old Malay, and other languages written in the Kawi script.
