Unicode Version 17.0

𒇑

U+121D1 "𒇑" Cuneiform Sign Lagab Times Ku3 is a specific glyph from the ancient Sumerian and Akkadian cuneiform script system, encoded in the Unicode Standard's Cuneiform block to support digital representation of these early writing forms. This character is a compound sign formed by combining the cuneiform sign LAGAB (often representing concepts of "area" or "totality") with the sign KU3 (frequently associated with ideas of "pure," "shining," or "precious"), typically rendered as LAGAB visually overlaid or multiplied within a single block. Historically, such compound signs were used in Mesopotamian texts for specific logographic meanings, often relating to terms for metal, purification, or divine epithets, though its precise usage depends on the context of the cuneiform tablet. Modern encoding of this character allows scholars and enthusiasts to accurately preserve and digitally process this ancient writing, enabling research, archiving, and typographic reproduction of cuneiform docum
