U+12393 "ð’Ž“" Cuneiform Sign Nu11 Rotated Ninety Degrees is a specific glyph from the Cuneiform script block used in the standard encoding of Sumero-Akkadian writing systems, representing a variant of the sign "NU11" that has been rotated by a quarter turn, likely for positional or orthographic purposes within cuneiform texts. This character belongs to the supplementary cuneiform plane, encoding an archaic or less common form that may appear in specific lexical lists, astronomical tablets, or scholarly transcriptions where sign orientation conveys grammatical or phonetic distinctions.
