U+10FE5 "𐿥" Elymaic Letter Waw is a glyph from the Elymaic script, an ancient writing system used in the region of Elymais in southwestern Iran from roughly the 2nd century BCE to the 3rd century CE. This letter represents the consonant "w," analogous to the letter "waw" in related Semitic alphabets, and was employed in inscriptions on stone monuments, coins, and other artifacts to record the Aramaic-derived language of the Elymaean people. Its inclusion in Unicode supports the digital preservation and scholarly study of this historical script, which offers insights into the cultural and linguistic interactions of the Hellenistic and Parthian periods in the ancient Near East.
