U+12381 "𒎁" Cuneiform Sign Ka Times Gud is a specific glyph from the ancient Sumerian and Akkadian cuneiform script, representing a composite sign formed by combining the characters for "ka" (mouth or speech) and "gud" (bull or ox) within a single ligature. This sign was used in the writing system of Mesopotamia, particularly on clay tablets for administrative, legal, and literary texts, and its value likely contributed to syllabic or logographic representation in the language.
