𒉍

U+1224D "𒉍" Cuneiform Sign Ni Times E is a compound sign from the Sumerian and Akkadian cuneiform script, formed by combining the signs NI and E to create a distinct logogram or syllabic value used in ancient Mesopotamian writing. This character belongs to the Early Dynastic Cuneiform block, which includes many complex signs that represent specific words or syllables, such as names of deities, kings, or places, though its exact linguistic usage in context can vary across different periods and texts. As part of the Unicode standard, it enables digital representation and study of these ancient inscriptions, preserving a small fragment of the rich written heritage from the region of modern-day Iraq.
