Unicode Version 17.0

𒁬

U+1206C "𒁬" Cuneiform Sign Dag Kisim5 Times U2 Plus Gir2 is a specific glyph from the cuneiform script, used in ancient Mesopotamian writing systems like Sumerian and Akkadian. Its lengthy name describes a composite sign formed by combining the element "DAG" with the sign "KISIM5" repeated five times, further incorporating "U2" and "GIR2" to create a complex logographic or phonetic representation. This character likely represented a specialized term, possibly a type of object, substance, or administrative concept, reflecting the intricate system of wedge-shaped symbols that scribes used to record language on clay tablets. Part of the Unicode Standard's Cuneiform block, it preserves a unique example of the symbolic complexity and combinatorial grammar of this early writing tradition.
