U+1173A "𑜺" Ahom Number Ten Unicode Character

U+1173A "𑜺" Ahom Number Ten is a numeral from the Ahom script, a historical writing system used to write the Ahom language of the Tai people in Assam, India, between the 13th and 18th centuries. This character specifically represents the number ten in the Ahom decimal numeral system, which was primarily used for administrative, legal, and astronomical records within the Ahom kingdom. The Ahom script itself is a Brahmic abugida, and its numerals, including this one, were inscribed on manuscripts and stone inscriptions, reflecting the sophisticated numerical notation of a once powerful kingdom that ruled parts of Northeast India for nearly 600 years. Today, the character is encoded in Unicode to preserve and support digital representation of this endangered script and its numerical legacy.
