Source: Browser Default
U+100A4 "𐂤" Linear B Monogram B156 Turo2 is a sign from the Linear B script, an ancient writing system used in Mycenaean Greece primarily for administrative records. This specific monogram, cataloged as B156 and named "Turo2," represents a type of cheese or a related dairy product, as the term "tu-ro" appears in Linear B tablets. It falls within the Linear B Ideograms block of Unicode, which encodes symbols for commodities, goods, and other items frequently recorded in the archive tablets from sites like Knossos and Pylos. The character thus provides a direct link to the economic and linguistic practices of the late Bronze Age Aegean civilization.
