U+1B013 "𛀓" Hentaigana Letter E-6 Unicode Character

U+1B013 "𛀓" Hentaigana Letter E-6 is a specific glyph from the hentaigana, or variant kana, script used historically in Japan, representing a non-standard form of the sound "e". This character belongs to a block of Unicode dedicated to preserving these obsolete cursive and decorative syllabic characters, which were once common in pre-modern Japanese writing before the modern hiragana syllabary was standardized. The "E-6" in its name indicates it is the sixth distinct variant in a specific set of hentaigana for the syllable "e". Its inclusion in Unicode allows for the accurate digital representation and study of historical Japanese texts, calligraphy, and literature where such variant forms were used.
