U+109C2 "𐧂" Meroitic Cursive Number Three Unicode Character

U+109C2 "𐧂" Meroitic Cursive Number Three is a numeral from the Meroitic script, which was used to write the Meroitic language spoken in the ancient Kingdom of Kush, located in present-day Sudan. This cursive form of the script was primarily employed for administrative and everyday writing, often on ostraca or papyrus, and the character itself represents the numeric value of three, part of a decimal system that combined individual signs for units and tens. Today, Unicode includes this character to support digital preservation and study of the Meroitic writing system, which was deciphered in the early 20th century and remains a vital link to understanding the civilization's culture, economy, and records.
