Unicode Version 17.0

𒿝

U+12FDD "𒿝" Cypro-Minoan Sign Cm091 is a specific glyph from the undeciphered Cypro-Minoan syllabary, which was used on the island of Cyprus during the Late Bronze Age, roughly between the 15th and 11th centuries BCE. This sign belongs to the Cypro-Minoan block of the Unicode Standard, encoding a writing system that remains largely unread but is believed to represent a pre Greek language, possibly related to the earlier Linear A script of Minoan Crete. The glyph depicts a simplified linear symbol, often interpreted as a phonetic syllable or logogram, and its inclusion in Unicode allows scholars and digital archivists to preserve and study this ancient script in modern text formats without relying on specialized fonts. As with most Cypro Minoan characters, the exact phonetic value and meaning of Cm091 are not known, but it contributes to the broader effort of documenting and analyzing the fragmentary records of Bronze Age Mediterranean communication.
