U+12171 "ð’…±" Cuneiform Sign Ka Times Kid Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+12171 "ð’…±" Cuneiform Sign Ka Times Kid is a compound cuneiform glyph from the Sumero-Akkadian script tradition, specifically formed by combining the signs for "ka" and "kid" in sequence to create a distinct logographic or syllabic value. This character belongs to the Cuneiform block of Unicode, which preserves the wedge-shaped writing system used in ancient Mesopotamia for languages like Sumerian and Akkadian. Its function would have been to represent a specific word, name, or phonetic syllable in administrative, literary, or ritual texts, though precise readings can vary depending on the historical period and context. By encoding such a complex sign, Unicode ensures that scholars and digital projects can faithfully reproduce and study these ancient records without resorting to simplified or missing representations.
