U+124A5 "ð’’¥" Cuneiform Sign Dug Times Ni is a specific glyph from the ancient Mesopotamian cuneiform script, encoding a compound sign formed by combining the sign for "DUG" with the sign for "NI" placed inside or multiplied by it. This character belongs to the "Cuneiform" block in Unicode, which covers the Sumero-Akkadian writing system used from the late 4th millennium BCE onward.
