U+12061 "𒁡" Cuneiform Sign Dag Kisim5 Times Ir Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+12061 "𒁡" Cuneiform Sign Dag Kisim5 Times Ir is a complex sign from the Sumero-Akkadian cuneiform script, representing a specific combination of wedge marks that were used in ancient Mesopotamia. This character belongs to the Cuneiform Unicode block, which encodes the writing system used primarily for Sumerian, Akkadian, and other languages on clay tablets. The sign's name indicates that it is a logogram or syllabogram built from the base sign DAG (𒁖) combined with the phonetic reading "Kisim" repeated five times, linking it to the Sumerian word for "beside" or a related concept in administrative contexts. Its inclusion in Unicode allows for digital representation and study of ancient texts, preserving a small fragment of the rich linguistic heritage of the Near East.
