Unicode Version 17.0
𔖐
U+14590 "𔖐" Anatolian Hieroglyph A355 is a specific sign from the Anatolian hieroglyphic script, which was used primarily in the Bronze and Iron Ages to write the Luwian language in what is now modern-day Turkey and northern Syria. This particular glyph, catalogued as A355 in the standard sign list, represents a pictographic symbol whose exact phonetic value or meaning is determined by its context within inscriptions, often found on monumental stone monuments and seals. Anatolian hieroglyphs like A355 are distinct from Egyptian hieroglyphs and are read in boustrophedon style, meaning the direction of the text alternates with each line, and they continue to be a subject of scholarly study for deciphering Luwian history and culture.
