U+122A9 "𒊩" Cuneiform Sign Sal Unicode Character

U+122A9 "𒊩" Cuneiform Sign Sal is a logogram and determinative from the Sumerian and Akkadian cuneiform script, primarily representing the word for "woman" or "female." In ancient Mesopotamian writing, this sign served both as a standalone word for "female" and as a semantic classifier placed before personal names or professions to indicate a woman's gender or to reference goddesses and feminine concepts. Its wedge-shaped appearance, typical of cuneiform script, was impressed into clay tablets using a reed stylus, and it is part of the Unicode standard's Cuneiform block, which preserves this ancient writing system for modern digital use.
