U+1080E "𐠎" Cypriot Syllable Ku Unicode Character

U+1080E "𐠎" Cypriot Syllable Ku is a symbol from the Cypriot syllabary, a writing system used on the island of Cyprus from the 11th to the 4th centuries BCE primarily for the Arcadocypriot Greek dialect. This particular character represents the phonetic syllable "ku", and its glyph resembles a stylized vertical line with a small loop or hook at the top, reflecting the linear and pictographic nature of the script. The Cypriot syllabary, which includes 56 such signs, was used in inscriptions and administrative documents before being largely replaced by the Greek alphabet, and the "Ku" syllable is part of the Unicode Standard to support historical and linguistic research into ancient Cypriot culture and writing.
