U+121EB "𒇫" Cuneiform Sign Lagab Squared Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+121EB "𒇫" Cuneiform Sign Lagab Squared is a specific glyph from the ancient Mesopotamian writing system, representing a squared variant of the basic Lagab sign. This sign belongs to the Cuneiform script used primarily by the Sumerians, Akkadians, and other cultures in the ancient Near East, and it often appears in administrative, legal, and literary texts inscribed on clay tablets. The "Squared" designation in its name indicates a stylized, blockier form of the standard Lagab sign, which typically represented a building or a block of land and carried phonetic or logographic values depending on context. Incorporated into the Unicode Standard as part of the Cuneiform block covering Early Dynastic and Old Babylonian periods, U+121EB enables digital representation and scholarly study of these ancient inscriptions with precision.
