U+121C0 "𒇀" Cuneiform Sign Lagab Times Bad Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+121C0 "𒇀" Cuneiform Sign Lagab Times Bad is a compound cuneiform glyph from the early Sumerian and Akkadian writing systems, created by combining the sign for "LAGAB" (a general term for a block or lump) with the sign "BAD" (meaning "dead" or "divided" in historical contexts). This specific ideograph was used in ancient Mesopotamian texts to represent both a phonetic syllable and a logographic concept, often appearing in administrative, legal, or religious inscriptions to denote a precise semantic nuance, such as a segmented or partitioned mass. Its inclusion in the Unicode standard allows modern digital preservation and scholarly study of cuneiform, ensuring that this ancient symbol remains accessible for linguistic and historical research without alteration or ambiguity.
