Unicode Version 17.0

𒇧

U+121E7 "𒇧" Cuneiform Sign Lagab Times U Plus U Plus U is a complex glyph from the Sumero-Akkadian cuneiform script, part of the Unicode standard's Early Dynastic Cuneiform block. Its descriptive name indicates that it visually represents the base sign LAGAB combined with three instances of the U sign, likely arranged in a stacked or sequential pattern as a scribal compound. This character was used in ancient Mesopotamian writing to convey a specific phonetic or logographic value, often reflecting a word or syllable critical to administrative, legal, or literary texts. As a digital representation, it enables modern preservation and study of a sign that would originally have been impressed into clay with a stylus, bridging millennia between ancient record keeping and contemporary computational encoding.
