Unicode Version 17.0

ð’‹£

U+122E3 "ð’‹£" Cuneiform Sign Su over Su is a compound sign from the Sumero-Akkadian cuneiform script, formed by placing the sign for "su" above another instance of the same sign. This ligature typically represents the syllable "šuš" in the Hittite language, where it was used to write the word for "fierce" or "violent," reflecting the scribal convention of stacking identical signs to denote a specific phonetic or logographic value. It belongs to the Early Dynastic Cuneiform block in Unicode and is part of the rich repertoire of signs used in ancient Mesopotamia and Anatolia for administrative, literary, and religious texts.
