U+1218A "𒆊" Cuneiform Sign Ka Times Umum Times Pa Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+1218A "𒆊" Cuneiform Sign Ka Times Umum Times Pa is a complex logogram from the Cuneiform script, which was used in ancient Mesopotamia for languages such as Sumerian and Akkadian. This particular sign is formed by combining the phonetic element "Ka" with the components "Umum" and "Pa" in a multiplicative ligature, or compound sign, where the individual elements are stacked or nested together to represent a specific word or meaning. While its exact semantic value can vary based on context, compound signs of this type often encode specialized vocabulary, such as names of objects, deities, or administrative terms, reflecting the intricate nature of cuneiform writing where signs could function both phonetically and logographically. As part of the Unicode standard, this character helps preserve and digitally represent one of humanity's earliest writing systems.
