U+1220C "𒈌" Cuneiform Sign Lu2 Times Ne Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
𒈌
U+1220C "𒈌" Cuneiform Sign Lu2 Times Ne is a specific glyph from the Sumero-Akkadian cuneiform script, one of the earliest known writing systems, used primarily for the Sumerian and Akkadian languages in ancient Mesopotamia. This sign is a composite ligature formed by combining the standard cuneiform signs for "Lu2" (often signifying a person or profession) and "Ne" (which can indicate a demonstrative or a genitive element), written as a single graphical unit rather than as two separate characters. Its inclusion in the Unicode Standard ensures that digital representations of these ancient texts can be accurately encoded and exchanged, preserving complex orthographic traditions for scholars and historians.
