U+103BF "𐎿" Old Persian Sign Sa is a cuneiform character from the Old Persian script, which was used in the Achaemenid Empire from the 6th to the 4th centuries BCE to inscribe monumental texts, most notably on the Behistun Inscription and the tombs of Persian kings. Representing the syllable "sa," this sign belongs to a set of 36 phonetic and logographic symbols that were part of a simplified, semi-alphabetic cuneiform system developed under Darius I. Typically written from left to right in wedge-shaped impressions, the character appears in royal inscriptions that chronicle historical events and the exploits of rulers, making it a key artifact for understanding early Persian language and culture.
