U+1088F "𐢏" Nabataean Letter Kaph is a glyph from the Nabataean script, an ancient writing system used primarily between the 2nd century BCE and the 4th century CE for the Nabataean language, a dialect of Aramaic spoken in the region of modern Jordan and the Sinai Peninsula. This character represents the letter "kaph," which corresponds to the sound /k/ and is the eleventh letter of the Nabataean alphabet, closely related to the Aramaic and Phoenician letter of the same name. The Nabataean script is historically significant as a precursor to the Arabic script, and the Kaph letter appears in inscriptions on tombs, temples, and trade documents, reflecting the culture of the Nabataean civilization famed for its capital at Petra.
