Source: Browser Default
U+1695D "𖥝" Bamum Letter Phase-D Puq is a glyph from the Bamum script, which was developed in the late 19th and early 20th centuries in what is now Cameroon, Africa. This specific letter belongs to Phase D of the script's evolution, a later stage in the script's standardization by King Njoya and his scribes, where it was used to represent a distinct syllable or sound in the Bamum language. The character is part of a larger corpus of Bamum letters that were encoded in Unicode to preserve and facilitate digital use of this historical writing system, which underwent several phases of simplification and reform before falling into disuse and later revival efforts.
