U+1E8CC "𞣌" Mende Kikakui Digit Six Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
𞣌
U+1E8CC "𞣌" Mende Kikakui Digit Six is a numerical symbol from the Mende Kikakui script, which is a syllabary historically used to write the Mende language of Sierra Leone in West Africa. This digit represents the number six and was part of a complete numeral system invented for the script, with each digit having a distinct, abstract shape unrelated to Roman or Arabic numerals. The Mende Kikakui script itself was created in the late 19th or early 20th century and fell out of common use, but it is preserved in Unicode to support historical and linguistic research.
