U+14606 "𔘆" Anatolian Hieroglyph A463 Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+14606 "𔘆" Anatolian Hieroglyph A463 is a symbol from the Anatolian hieroglyphic script, a writing system used primarily by the Luwian people in Anatolia and parts of modern Syria during the Late Bronze Age and early Iron Age, roughly between the 14th and 7th centuries BCE. This particular glyph, cataloged as A463 in the standard corpus, represents a phonetic syllable or a logographic concept, though its exact value is determined through contextual analysis in surviving monumental inscriptions on stone and seal impressions. The script, which combines both phonetic signs and logograms, was employed for recording the Luwian language on royal monuments, religious buildings, and official seals. The inclusion of A463 in Unicode facilitates digital preservation and study of these ancient texts, supporting scholarly research into the history, linguistics, and culture of the Hittite and Neo-Hittite periods.
