U+100A6 "𐂦" Linear B Ideogram B158 Unicode Character

U+100A6 "𐂦" Linear B Ideogram B158 is a symbol from the ancient Linear B script, which was used for writing early Greek on Crete and mainland Greece during the Late Bronze Age, roughly between 1450 and 1200 BCE. This specific ideogram is identified by the index number B158 and is generally understood to represent untanned or raw hide, functioning not as a phonetic letter but as a logogram to denote a specific commodity or item in the administrative and economic records inscribed on clay tablets. As part of the Linear B syllabary and ideographic system, it illustrates how Mycenaean scribes combined phonetic signs with visual symbols to efficiently manage palace inventories and resource distribution.
