Unicode Version 17.0
𔔥
U+14525 "𔔥" Anatolian Hieroglyph A259 is a sign from the Anatolian hieroglyphic script, a logosyllabic writing system used primarily in the Iron Age (circa 1400–700 BCE) by the Luwian people in what is now Turkey and northern Syria. This particular glyph, cataloged as A259 in the standard sign list, likely represents a phonetic syllable or a logographic word based on its context in monumental stone inscriptions, often found on palatial or religious monuments. Scholars study such characters to reconstruct the Luwian language and understand the political and cultural history of the Hittite successor states.
