U+1206F "𒁯" Cuneiform Sign Dar is a cuneiform sign used in the ancient writing systems of Sumerian, Akkadian, and other Mesopotamian languages, where it typically represents the syllabic value "dar" or the Sumerian word for "to split" or "to divide." This wedge shaped character belongs to the early Sumero Akkadian cuneiform script repertoire and was inscribed on clay tablets using a reed stylus, often appearing in administrative, legal, and literary texts from the third millennium BCE.
