Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+169C "᚜" Ogham Reversed Feather Mark is a typographic symbol used within the Ogham script, an ancient medieval alphabet primarily employed to write the early Irish language. This specific character, the counterpart to the Ogham Feather Mark (U+169B), functioned as a punctuation or space marker, often appearing at the boundaries of words or longer text segments to aid in readability. Unlike standard alphabetical letters, it represents no phonetic value but serves as a structural element, and its reversed orientation suggests it may have designated the end of a textual unit, such as a line or a section, in the Ogham writing tradition.
