Unicode Version 17.0

𒓝

U+124DD "𒓝" Cuneiform Sign Lak-080 is a graphical symbol from the ancient Mesopotamian cuneiform script, specifically representing a wedge shaped sign that was part of the extensive syllabic and logographic writing system used by the Sumerians, Akkadians, and other cultures in the ancient Near East. Its designation "Lak-080" refers to its listing in the "La Courtois" or "Lak" sign catalog, a modern classification system for cuneiform characters, and it typically corresponds to a specific phonetic or word value in the script. This character is encoded in the Unicode Standard under the Cuneiform block, allowing for its digital representation and use in academic study, digital humanities projects, and preservation of ancient texts, though its precise meaning and usage depend entirely on the historical context of the tablet or inscription in which it appears.
