U+10284 "𐊄" Lycian Letter G is a character from the Lycian script, an alphabet used to write the Lycian language in ancient Anatolia, modern-day Turkey, from roughly the 5th to 4th centuries BCE. This specific letter represented a voiced velar or uvular sound, similar to a hard "g" in English. As part of the Lycian alphabet, which had 29 characters and was derived from the Greek script with some unique modifications, "𐊄" was used to inscribe epigraphic texts found primarily on stone monuments and tombs, including the famous Xanthian inscriptions. The character is encoded in the Unicode Standard under the Supplementary Multilingual Plane, specifically in the Lycian block, preserving the ability to digitally represent and study this ancient and historically significant written language.
