𒿨

U+12FE8 "𒿨" Cypro-Minoan Sign Cm103 is a script sign from the undeciphered Cypro-Minoan syllabary, which was used primarily on the island of Cyprus during the Late Bronze Age, roughly between 1550 and 1050 BCE. This specific sign, cataloged as Cm103 in the standard classification, represents one of many graphic symbols that appear on clay tablets, inscribed cylinders, and other artifacts found at archaeological sites such as Enkomi and Ugarit. While the exact phonetic value and meaning of Cm103 remain unknown due to the undeciphered nature of the script, its inclusion in the Unicode Standard ensures that scholars and linguists can digitally preserve, study, and share this ancient writing system without relying on specialized fonts, thereby supporting ongoing research into the linguistic history of the eastern Mediterranean.
