U+2C07 "Ⰷ" Glagolitic Capital Letter Dzelo Unicode Character
U+2C07 "Ⰷ" Glagolitic Capital Letter Dzelo is a historical letter from the Glagolitic script, one of the oldest known Slavic alphabets, traditionally attributed to Saint Cyril in the 9th century. This capital glyph represents the sound /dz/ and corresponds to the Cyrillic letter "Ѕ" (Dzelo), though its precise phonetic value varied across different Old Church Slavonic dialects. As part of the Glagolitic block in Unicode, this character is primarily used for scholarly transcription and digital preservation of medieval Slavic manuscripts, where it appears in uppercase form at the beginning of proper names or liturgical texts. While rarely employed in modern contexts, its inclusion in Unicode aids linguists, historians, and typographers in accurately representing early Slavic writing systems.
