Unicode Block - Cypriot Syllabary

Unicode Version 18.0

Cypriot Syllabary is a writing system used primarily in Cyprus from the 11th to the 4th century BCE, representing the Cypriot Greek and Eteocypriot languages. It consists of around 55 signs, each denoting a syllable, typically combining a consonant and a vowel, which reflects its Linear A and B ancestry. The script reads from right to left in its earliest inscriptions but later shifts to left to right, with word dividers appearing as small vertical marks. Notably, it was successfully deciphered in the 19th century, and its characters are encoded in the Unicode standard to preserve this ancient form of syllabic writing for digital use, aiding in historical and linguistic research.
