U+124EB "ð’“«" Cuneiform Sign Lak-347 Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

ð’“«

U+124EB "ð’“«" Cuneiform Sign Lak-347 is a specific wedge shaped glyph from the ancient Sumerian and Akkadian writing system known as cuneiform, which was used in Mesopotamia around 3000 BCE. This particular sign is cataloged under the Lak notation system, a modern scholarly numbering scheme that classifies cuneiform characters based on their form rather than their phonetic or logographic value. Lak is derived from the name of the assyriologist Rykle Borger, and the number 347 distinguishes this unique wedge arrangement from the thousands of other cuneiform signs. Because its exact phonetic or semantic meaning may vary depending on the historical text and context, its inclusion in the Unicode standard ensures that digital researchers, linguists, and historians can accurately encode and share ancient inscriptions without loss of detail.
