Unicode Version 17.0

𒊽

U+122BD "𒊽" Cuneiform Sign She over She Tab over Tab Gar over Gar is a rare compound grapheme found in the ancient Mesopotamian cuneiform script, representing a complex ligature formed by stacking the signs for "she," "tab," and "gar" atop one another in a repeated structure. This character belongs to the Early Dynastic Cuneiform block, which encodes signs from the earliest stages of Sumerian writing, and its intricacy reflects the scribal practice of combining multiple phonetic or logographic elements to represent a single lexical item or a specific administrative term. Its usage is primarily confined to archaic inscription conventions, and it serves as a notable example of how cuneiform evolved to convey nuanced meaning through spatial arrangement within a single sign.
