Unicode Version 17.0

𔘫

U+1462B "𔘫" Anatolian Hieroglyph A503 is a single glyph from the Anatolian Hieroglyphic script, an ancient writing system used primarily in the Iron Age (roughly 14th to 7th centuries BCE) by the Luwian language speakers in what is now Turkey and northern Syria. This specific sign, cataloged as A503 in the standard sign list, likely represents a syllabic or logographic value within the script, often associated with the concept of "king" or "ruler," as many Anatolian hieroglyphs were used in monumental inscriptions for royal names, titles, or administrative records. The character is part of a larger Unicode block (U+14400 to U+1467F) that was added to the standard in 2015 to support the digital encoding of this historically significant script, enabling modern research and preservation of ancient Anatolian texts.
