U+1000B "𐀋" Linear B Syllable B046 Je is a specific character from the Linear B script, a syllabic writing system used primarily for recording Mycenaean Greek on clay tablets in the Late Bronze Age, around 1450 to 1200 BCE. This particular syllable, transliterated as "je," represents a phonetic value within the Linear B syllabary and was used for administrative and economic documentation in palatial centers such as Knossos and Pylos. Its inclusion in the Unicode Standard allows for the digital representation and study of this ancient script, preserving a small piece of the linguistic heritage from a period that predates the Greek alphabet by several centuries.
