U+10590 "𐖐" Vithkuqi Capital Letter U is part of the Vithkuqi script, an alphabet historically used to write the Albanian language, particularly during the 19th and early 20th centuries. This specific character represents the capital form of the vowel sound /u/ and belongs to a block of Unicode that was added in version 14.0 in 2021 to support digital preservation of the script. The Vithkuqi script itself was created by the Albanian scholar Naum Veqilharxhi in the 1840s as part of efforts to develop a distinctive national writing system for Albanian, distinct from the Latin, Greek, and Arabic alphabets then in use.
