Unicode Version 17.0

𔕡

U+14561 "𔕡" Anatolian Hieroglyph A314 is a sign from the Luwian hieroglyphic script used primarily in Anatolia during the Late Bronze and Early Iron Ages, roughly between the 14th and 7th centuries BCE. This particular glyph, cataloged as A314 in the standard corpus, represents a pictographic symbol whose exact phonetic or logographic value is still debated by scholars, though it is often associated with the concept of a "foot" or "leg" based on its visual depiction. The inclusion of this character in Unicode helps preserve and facilitate digital research into the Anatolian languages, which are part of the broader Indo-European linguistic family, allowing historians and linguists to transcribe ancient inscriptions accurately. Its addition to the standard promotes accessibility for academic study, digital archiving, and the ongoing effort to decipher this largely extinct writing system.
