Unicode Version 17.0
𖤇
U+16907 "𖤇" Bamum Letter Phase-D Sap is part of the Bamum script, which was historically used in the Bamum Kingdom of present-day Cameroon to write the Bamum language. This specific character belongs to Phase D, a stage in the script's evolution when King Njoya and his scribes systematically expanded and standardized the syllabary in the early 20th century. The letter "Sap" represents a particular syllable sound, and its inclusion in the Unicode Standard helps preserve and digitally support the rich lingustic heritage of the Bamum people.
