Unicode Version 17.0

ð’ƒ·

U+120F7 "ð’ƒ·" Cuneiform Sign Gan2 is a graphical representation of an ancient Sumerian cuneiform sign primarily used in the writing system of Mesopotamia, where it functioned as a syllabogram for the sound “gan” and also carried logographic meanings, most notably associated with the word for “bowl” or “vessel.” This sign belongs to the early and complex script that evolved from pictographic origins, and its inclusion in Unicode allows for its digital preservation and study within the field of Assyriology. It is encoded in the Cuneiform block (U+12000 to U+123FF), a range dedicated to supporting the transcription and analysis of cuneiform texts from various historical periods and regions of the ancient Near East.
