U+103A6 "𐎦" Old Persian Sign Gu is a cuneiform symbol from the Old Persian script, which was used primarily during the Achaemenid Empire from the 6th to 4th centuries BCE to write the Old Persian language. It represents the syllabic sound "gu" and belongs to the set of wedge-shaped signs carved into clay or stone monuments, most famously in inscriptions like that of Darius the Great at Behistun. This character is part of the Unicode standard's Old Persian block, encoded to preserve an ancient writing system that was deciphered in the 19th century, linking modern digital text to a pivotal era of ancient Mesopotamian and Persian history.
