U+103C8 "𐏈" Old Persian Sign Auramazdaa Unicode Character

U+103C8 "𐏈" Old Persian Sign Auramazdaa is a logogram from the Old Persian cuneiform script, used in inscriptions of the Achaemenid Empire to represent the name of the supreme Zoroastrian deity Ahura Mazda. This single character stands for the entire divine name rather than a phonetic syllable, functioning as a sacred shorthand in royal texts, most notably on monuments like the Behistun Inscription. Its inclusion in Unicode allows for the accurate digital representation of ancient Persian writing systems, preserving the linguistic and religious heritage of the Achaemenid period.
