Unicode Version 17.0
𒇘
U+121D8 "𒇘" Cuneiform Sign Lagab Times Me is a specific glyph from the ancient Sumerian and Akkadian writing system known as cuneiform, which was used primarily in Mesopotamia. This sign combines the composite "Lagab" (a basic wedge shape often representing a block or lump) with the "Times" phonetic overlay of "Me" (a sign associated with divine decrees or the Sumerian word for "being"), creating a logogram or syllabic compound. Its precise reading and meaning depend on the textual context but often relate to administrative or religious vocabulary, and it is encoded in the Unicode standard's Cuneiform block to support digital preservation and study of ancient Near Eastern texts.
