U+1237A "𒍺" Cuneiform Sign Ga2 Times Ash2 Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+1237A "𒍺" Cuneiform Sign Ga2 Times Ash2 is a specific glyph from the ancient Sumerian and Akkadian writing system known as cuneiform, representing a compound sign created by combining the signs for GA2 and ASH2. This character belongs to the Cuneiform Unicode block, which encodes script used primarily for the Sumerian, Akkadian, and Hittite languages on clay tablets from Mesopotamia. Its designation indicates that the sign is a ligature or complex form where GA2 encloses or combines with ASH2, likely representing a phonetic syllable or a logogram with a distinct meaning in administrative, economic, or literary texts. As part of the effort to digitally preserve ancient scripts, this encoding allows modern researchers to accurately render and search cuneiform documents without relying on transliteration alone.
