U+10371 "𐍱" Old Permic Letter Yat Unicode Character

U+10371 "𐍱" Old Permic Letter Yat is an element of the Old Permic script, an alphabet devised by the missionary Saint Stephen of Perm in the late 14th century to write the Komi language. This specific character represents the sound typically associated with the vowel "jat" and is one of several letters adapted from the Cyrillic and Greek alphabets, as well as indigenous Tamga signs, to suit the phonetic needs of the language. Though the script fell out of widespread use after the 17th century, being largely replaced by the Cyrillic alphabet, it remains a significant piece of Uralic linguistic history and is encoded in the Unicode Standard under the Old Permic block.
