Unicode Version 17.0

𒃱

U+120F1 "𒃱" Cuneiform Sign Gad over Gad Gar over Gar is a compound sign from the Sumero-Akkadian cuneiform script, representing a ligature formed by stacking the sign for "Gad" twice above the sign for "Gar" twice. This complex character was used primarily in the late periods of cuneiform writing, often within scholarly or lexical lists to denote specific phonetic or logographic values, such as for the Sumerian word "gad" meaning "linen" or "flax." Its structure reflects the scribal practice of creating composite signs to capture nuanced sounds or syllabic combinations, though it remains a rare and specialized glyph encountered mainly in advanced epigraphic studies.
