Unicode Version 17.0

𒿜

U+12FDC "𒿜" Cypro-Minoan Sign Cm090 is a rare and ancient script symbol used in the undeciphered writing system known as Cypro-Minoan, which was employed primarily on the island of Cyprus during the Late Bronze Age, roughly between the 15th and 11th centuries BCE. This specific sign belongs to the corpus of around 200 known Cypro-Minoan characters, which were inscribed on clay tablets, cylinder seals, and other artifacts, representing a syllabic script that remains only partially understood by modern scholars. The addition of Cm090 to the Unicode Standard in 2021 as part of the Cypro-Minoan block helps preserve and digitally represent this endangered historical writing system, enabling researchers to study and share texts more effectively across digital platforms and databases.
