Unicode Version 17.0

ð’“„

U+124C4 "ð’“„" Cuneiform Sign Ga2 Times Ne is a specific glyph from the monumental cuneiform script of ancient Mesopotamia, representing a compound sign formed by the combination of the cuneiform signs GA2 and NE that are written overlapping or in ligature. This sign is part of the Unicode standard's Cuneiform block, which encodes thousands of logographic and syllabic symbols used primarily in the writing of Sumerian and Akkadian languages on clay tablets. The "Ga2 Times Ne" notation indicates a complex or multi-sign ligature where the characters are conceptually merged, often used to represent a specific word, syllable, or semantic nuance in administrative, legal, or literary texts from the late third to first millennium BCE. Its inclusion in Unicode allows for precise digital representation and scholarly study of these ancient scripts without loss of typographic detail.
