𒍛

U+1235B "𒍛" Cuneiform Sign Uz3 Times Kaskal is a specific glyph from the ancient Sumerian and Akkadian cuneiform script system, representing a compound sign composed of the sign "Uz3" multiplied by or combined with the sign "Kaskal" meaning journey or road. This character belongs to the Cuneiform block of the Unicode standard, which encodes wedge-shaped inscriptions that were used for writing various languages of the ancient Near East, including Sumerian and Akkadian. As of current linguistic and epigraphic scholarship, this particular sign is known from cuneiform texts, though its precise phonetic value and semantic use may be rare or specialized, often appearing in administrative or lexical lists rather than in frequent narrative contexts. Its inclusion in Unicode helps preserve and digitally represent a fragment of humanity's earliest written records.
