U+1210D "𒄍" Cuneiform Sign Gir3 Times Igi Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+1210D "𒄍" Cuneiform Sign Gir3 Times Igi is a specific sign from the Sumerian and Akkadian cuneiform script, representing a compound formed by combining the sign for "Gir3" (meaning foot or path) with the sign for "Igi" (meaning eye or face). This character is part of the Sumero-Akkadian Cuneiform block in Unicode, which encodes the ancient wedge-shaped writing system used in Mesopotamia from around the 34th century BCE. The compound nature of this sign indicates it was used to represent a more complex phonetic or logographic value, often appearing in economic, administrative, or literary texts to convey a nuanced meaning related to movement or vision. Its inclusion in Unicode allows for the digital preservation and scholarly study of ancient languages, enabling modern researchers to accurately transcribe and share cuneiform inscriptions without relying on manual drawings or specialized fonts.
