U+10360 "𐍠" Old Permic Letter Rei Unicode Character

U+10360 "𐍠" Old Permic Letter Rei is a glyph from the Old Permic script, an alphabet created in the 14th century by the missionary Saint Stephen of Perm to write the Komi language and other Uralic languages of the Permic region. This specific letter represents a sound similar to a trilled or tap "r," and its form is based on a modified version of a Greek or Cyrillic character, reflecting the script's adaptation of existing alphabets to suit local phonetics. Historically, the Old Permic script was used primarily for religious texts and liturgical purposes before being largely replaced by Cyrillic, and today the Rei character is included in Unicode for scholarly work, digital representation, and the study of medieval Slavic and Finno-Ugric linguistics.
