Unicode Version 17.0
U+124CF "𒓏" Cuneiform Sign Hi Times Ash over Hi Times Ash is a rare and visually complex sign from the Cuneiform script, specifically representing a ligature composed of the repeated elements "Hi" and "Ash" stacked vertically. This character belongs to the Cuneiform Numbers and Punctuation block, which was added to the Unicode Standard to support the ancient writing system used primarily for the Sumerian, Akkadian, and Hittite languages. Its name describes its construction, where the sign "Hi" combined with the sign "Ash" appears twice, once above the other, reflecting the scribal practice of creating composite signs for numerical or administrative purposes in cuneiform texts. Due to its specialized nature, this character is primarily of interest to scholars of Assyriology and digital epigraphy, enabling precise transcription and encoding of ancient documents in modern electronic formats.
