U+10382 "𐎂" Ugaritic Letter Gamla is a glyph representing the consonant g in the Ugaritic alphabet, an ancient cuneiform script used in the city-state of Ugarit in modern-day Syria from around 1400 to 1180 BCE. This character, whose name likely derives from the Ugaritic word for something resembling a "hook" or "curve," was inscribed from left to right on clay tablets using a stylus and appears in a variety of administrative, literary, and religious texts. The letter corresponds to the Semitic letter gimel and is part of the Ugaritic block in Unicode, which enables modern digital representation and study of this important source of Canaanite language and culture.
