U+1E5EF "ðž—¯" Ol Onal Sign Ikir is a glyph from the Ol Onal script, an endangered writing system historically used for the Oromo language in the Horn of Africa. This specific character represents a consonant sound and is part of a larger set of signs developed to preserve and document the linguistic heritage of the Oromo people. The Ol Onal script, created in the 1950s, has seen limited adoption due to political and social factors, making characters like the Sign Ikir important for cultural and historical study within Unicode's support for minority scripts.
