U+100C6 "𐃆" Linear B Ideogram B230 Spear is a historical script symbol from the Linear B writing system used in ancient Mycenaean Greece, primarily for administrative and economic records on clay tablets. This particular ideogram represents a spear, serving as a logogram or pictographic shorthand to denote the weapon itself, likely in contexts of inventory, military supplies, or tribute listings. Its inclusion in the Unicode Standard under the “Linear B Ideograms” block allows scholars and digital archivists to encode and preserve this Bronze Age symbol in modern computing systems, facilitating research into Mycenaean palaeography, linguistics, and material culture.
