U+103B8 "𐎸" Old Persian Sign Mu is a cuneiform script sign used in the Old Persian language, which was the language of the Achaemenid Empire, primarily during the 6th to 4th centuries BCE. It represents the syllabic sound "mu," as part of a semi-alphabetic syllabary that was deciphered in the 19th century, notably by scholars like Henry Rawlinson. This character belongs to the Old Persian block of Unicode, which preserves the wedge shaped inscriptions found on monumental reliefs and cuneiform tablets, such as those at Behistun, enabling modern digital representation and study of this ancient writing system.
