U+121C5 "ð’‡…" Cuneiform Sign Lagab Times Gar Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

ð’‡…

U+121C5 "ð’‡…" Cuneiform Sign Lagab Times Gar is a compound sign from the ancient Mesopotamian writing system, representing the combination of the "Lagab" sign with the "Gar" sign, where "Times" indicates that the base sign "Lagab" is inscribed with the internal addition of "Gar." This typographic arrangement was used in Sumerian cuneiform to denote a specific phonetic value or logogram, often associated with the word "gur" or related concepts of measurement or granaries in administrative and economic texts. As part of the Cuneiform script encoded in the Unicode standard, this character preserves the complex visual and functional nature of wedge-shaped writing from the Bronze and Iron Ages, aiding scholars in the digital representation of ancient languages.
