U+10A74 "𐩴" Old South Arabian Letter Gimel is a script character from the Old South Arabian abjad, an ancient writing system used to record various Semitic languages such as Sabaic in the southwestern Arabian Peninsula from around the 9th century BCE to the 6th century CE. This particular character, named Gimel, represents the sound /g/ and is derived from a pictographic ancestor likely depicting a throw-stick or a similar object, following the same historical root as the Phoenician and Hebrew Gimel. It is encoded in the Unicode Standard under the Old South Arabian block, enabling its digital representation for scholarly, historical, and linguistic research into the epigraphic artifacts of pre-Islamic Arabia.
