U+101DB "𐇛" Phaistos Disc Sign Shield is a pictographic symbol from the mysterious Phaistos Disc, a clay artifact discovered in 1908 on the island of Crete and dating to the Minoan civilization of the second millennium BCE. This character depicts a shield, among the 45 distinct signs stamped onto the disc in a spiral sequence, and it is part of the Phaistos Disc symbols block in Unicode, encoded specifically for historical and epigraphical research. Its exact meaning remains unknown, as the disc’s script has never been deciphered, though it likely served a ritual or administrative purpose in the context of the Bronze Age Aegean world.
