Unicode Version 17.0

𒃝

U+120DD "𒃝" Cuneiform Sign Ga2 Times La is a compound sign from the Cuneiform script, an ancient writing system used primarily for the Sumerian, Akkadian, and Hittite languages in Mesopotamia. This specific glyph is formed by combining the signs "GA2" and "LA," where "GA2" typically represents a house or enclosure, and "LA" can denote the concept of being full or a measure in administrative texts. It was employed in cuneiform writing for its syllabic or logographic value, often within economic or bureaucratic records inscribed on clay tablets and dating back to the third millennium BCE. As part of the Unicode Standard, this character ensures that modern digital text can accurately represent the historical complexity and scholarly study of ancient Near Eastern languages and artifacts.
