U+103C9 "𐏉" Old Persian Sign Auramazdaa-2 is a unique glyph from the Old Persian cuneiform script, specifically an variant abbreviation for the divine name Auramazdaa, the supreme creator god in Zoroastrianism as invoked in royal Achaemenid inscriptions. This character, part of the Old Persian block in Unicode, serves as a logogram used in monumental texts from the Achaemenid Empire, such as those of Darius I and Xerxes I at Persepolis and Behistun, to represent the god's name in a compact, symbolic form rather than spelling it out phonetically. Its inclusion in digital encoding helps preserve and study the historical cuneiform writing system while facilitating modern scholarly access to ancient Persian religious and political records.
