U+1449C "𔒜" Anatolian Hieroglyph A130 Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

𔒜

U+1449C "𔒜" Anatolian Hieroglyph A130 is a syllabic sign from the Anatolian hieroglyphic script, which was used in the Bronze and Iron Ages to write the Luwian language in regions of ancient Anatolia, particularly within the Hittite Empire and later Neo-Hittite states. This specific glyph, known as A130 in standard classification, typically represents the syllable "ta" or a similar phonetic value, and it often appears in monumental stone inscriptions on palaces, gates, and rock faces. As part of the Anatolian Hieroglyphs block encoded in Unicode, this character preserves a fragment of a complex writing system that combined logographic and syllabic elements, allowing modern scholars to decode royal annals, religious dedications, and administrative records from a largely vanished civilization.
