U+10055 "𐁕" Linear B Symbol B049 is a script character from the Linear B syllabary, an ancient writing system used in Mycenaean Greece around 1450 to 1200 BCE primarily for administrative records on clay tablets. This specific symbol corresponds to the phonogram *49, which is conventionally transcribed as "ro2" or "ru" and appears in Linear B texts as part of syllabic writing for the Mycenaean Greek language. The character is encoded in the Unicode Linear B Syllabary block, which was added to version 4.0 in 2003 to support scholarly study and digital preservation of this historical script.
