U+103CB "𐏋" Old Persian Sign Xshaayathiya Unicode Character

U+103CB "𐏋" Old Persian Sign Xshaayathiya is a cuneiform symbol from the Old Persian script, used to represent the word for "king" or "monarch" in the Achaemenid Empire. This logogram appears in royal inscriptions, most famously at Persepolis and Behistun, where it denotes the title of the Persian sovereign, often translated as "xšāyaθiya" in the ancient language. The sign is composed of wedge-shaped strokes typical of cuneiform writing and stands as a distinct glyph within the Old Persian block of Unicode, serving as a key artifact for deciphering and preserving the linguistic heritage of early Persian civilization.
