U+121C2 "𒇂" Cuneiform Sign Lagab Times Dar Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+121C2 "𒇂" Cuneiform Sign Lagab Times Dar is a specific glyph from the Sumero-Akkadian cuneiform script, representing a compound sign formed by combining the base sign LAGAB with the phonetic complement DAR. This character was used in ancient Mesopotamian writing, particularly in the third and second millennia BCE, to denote a lexical or syllabic value within administrative, legal, and literary texts inscribed on clay tablets. Its precise meaning could vary based on context, often serving as a logogram or a determinative in the complex cuneiform system that blended logographic and syllabic elements. The inclusion of this sign in the Unicode Standard allows for its digital representation and study, preserving a fragment of one of humanity's earliest writing systems.
