Unicode Version 17.0
U+169FD "𖧽" Bamum Letter Phase-E Teu is a part of the Bamum script, which was developed in the late 19th and early 20th centuries in what is now Cameroon. This letter belongs to the Phase-E stage of the script's evolution, where it represents a syllable or sound corresponding to "teu" in the Bamum language. It is encoded in the Supplementary Multilingual Plane, specifically within the Bamum Supplement block, and is used primarily for historical and linguistic documentation of the Bamum writing system. The character serves as a vital tool for preserving the cultural and literary heritage of the Bamum people, as the script was originally devised by King Njoya and underwent several phases of simplification before falling into disuse and later being revived in digital form.
