U+10828 "𐠨" Cypriot Syllable Sa Unicode Character

U+10828 "𐠨" Cypriot Syllable Sa is a glyph from the Cypriot syllabary, a historical writing system used on the island of Cyprus from roughly the 11th to the 4th centuries BCE to write the ancient Cypriot Greek and Eteocypriot languages. This specific character represents the syllable "sa" and is encoded in the Unicode Standard under the Cypriot Syllabary block, placed within the Supplementary Multilingual Plane to preserve this ancient script for digital and academic use. Its form, a linear combination of strokes and loops, reflects the syllabary's derivation from the earlier Cypro-Minoan script, and it appears primarily in historical inscriptions, helping modern scholars decipher texts from Cyprus's Iron Age.
