Unicode Version 17.0
ð’†–
U+12196 "ð’†–" Cuneiform Sign Kak Times Igi Gunu is a complex sign from the Sumero Akkadian cuneiform script, representing a combination of the Kak sign and the Igi sign, with the Igi being written using the "gunu" or hatched/nuanced stroke style typical of certain cuneiform inscriptions. This character belongs to the Cuneiform block of the Unicode standard, used for encoding ancient Mesopotamian writing, and it likely functioned as a logogram or syllabic sign in administrative, legal, or literary texts from civilizations such as the Sumerians and Akkadians, but its exact phonetic value or meaning is now determined primarily through scholarly reconstruction of cuneiform lexicons.
