U+145EA "ð”—ª" Anatolian Hieroglyph A437 is a sign from the Anatolian hieroglyphic script, which was used primarily by the Luwian people in Anatolia during the Late Bronze and Early Iron Ages to write their language on monumental stone inscriptions and seals. This particular character, cataloged as A437 in the standard classification, likely represents a phonetic or logographic element, though its precise meaning or sound value is not universally agreed upon due to the fragmented nature of the corpus.
