U+11F50 "𑽐" Kawi Digit Zero Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+11F50 "𑽐" Kawi Digit Zero is a numerical glyph from the Kawi script, an ancient writing system historically used across Maritime Southeast Asia (such as in Java, Bali, and Sumatra) primarily for Old Javanese, Sanskrit, and other regional languages. It represents the concept of zero as a placeholder in the Kawi numeral system, which itself derived from Indian numerical traditions and was crucial for both everyday accounting and complex astronomical calculations. As part of the Kawi block added to Unicode in version 15.0 (2022), this digit helps scholars and digital archivists accurately transcribe and preserve historical manuscripts, inscriptions, and mathematical texts that document the early development of the zero symbol in Southeast Asian culture.
