Source: Browser Default
U+10FB0 "𐾰" Chorasmian Letter Aleph is the first letter of the Chorasmian script, an extinct Central Asian writing system used primarily between the 2nd and 8th centuries CE for the Chorasmian language, an Eastern Iranian tongue spoken in the region of Khwarezm. This character likely represented a glottal stop or a long vowel sound, similar to the Semitic aleph from which it was derived, as the Chorasmian alphabet was adapted from Aramaic script. The addition of this character to Unicode in 2020 with version 13.0 helps preserve the linguistic heritage of this historical civilization, enabling digital representation and study of its inscriptions and manuscripts.
