U+12143 "ð’…ƒ" Cuneiform Sign Idim over Idim Bur Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+12143 "ð’…ƒ" Cuneiform Sign Idim over Idim Bur is a compound glyph from the Sumero-Akkadian cuneiform script, specifically composed of two instances of the sign "IDIM" (meaning "mountain" or "great") stacked vertically, with a small "BUR" sign inscribed or interspersed within the structure. This complex sign belongs to the Early Dynastic period of Mesopotamian writing and was used primarily in administrative and lexical texts, often to represent a specific type of vessel, container, or a unit of capacity related to grain or liquids. Its inclusion in Unicode within the Cuneiform block helps preserve and digitally encode one of humanity’s earliest writing systems, allowing for scholarly study and accurate electronic representation of ancient documents without relying on modern typographic approximations.
