Unicode Version 17.0

𒇕

U+121D5 "𒇕" Cuneiform Sign Lagab Times Lish is a specific glyph from the early writing system of ancient Mesopotamia, representing a compound sign formed by combining the base sign “LAGAB” with the sign “LISH” inside it. This character belongs to the Sumero-Akkadian cuneiform script, which was used for recording languages such as Sumerian and Akkadian on clay tablets. The “LAGAB” sign typically denotes a container or enclosure, while “LISH” often indicates the numeral for three in numeric contexts, so together this composite sign can function as a logogram or syllabic component in administrative, economic, or lexical texts. Its inclusion in the Unicode Standard allows for accurate digital representation and preservation of ancient written records for modern research and encoding.
