U+1245C "𒑜" Cuneiform Numeric Sign Five Sixths Dish is a specialized glyph from the Cuneiform Numbers and Punctuation block, representing a fractional quantity in the ancient Mesopotamian sexagesimal (base 60) numeral system. This sign depicts the fraction five sixths, which in cuneiform notation was typically written as a composite or stylized wedge impression, used in administrative, economic, and mathematical texts on clay tablets to denote precise portions of a standard unit, such as a grain or capacity measure. Its inclusion in the Unicode standard allows modern digital representation and study of these ancient fractional notations, preserving the scribal conventions of Sumerian and Akkadian accounting practices.
