Unicode Version 17.0
U+124FB "ð’“»" Cuneiform Sign Lak-490 is a specific grapheme from the ancient Mesopotamian writing system of cuneiform, cataloged in the Unicode Standard under the Cuneiform block, which encompasses signs used primarily for Sumerian and Akkadian languages. Its designation "Lak-490" refers to a numbering convention in the “List of Archaic K/Cuneiform Signs” (often associated with the work of scholar Miguel Civil or related inventories) to identify signs found in early texts. While the precise phonetic value or meaning of Lak-490 may vary depending on the corpus and context of use, it belongs to the broader category of wedge-shaped marks that were impressed onto clay tablets, typically representing syllables or logograms in administrative, literary, or ritual records from the third and second millennia BCE. This character is part of a large set of over a thousand cuneiform signs encoded in Unicode to support digital preservation and scholarly study of these ancient texts.
