U+1B0C0 "𛃀" Hentaigana Letter Ho-7 Unicode Character

U+1B0C0 "𛃀" Hentaigana Letter Ho-7 is a historical variant of the Japanese hiragana character for the syllable "ho," belonging to the set of hentaigana, or alternative cursive forms, that were widely used in Japan before the standardization of modern hiragana in the early 20th century. This specific glyph represents one of several distinct handwritten styles derived from the Chinese character 保 (ho, meaning to protect or preserve), and it is encoded in the Unicode standard as part of the Hentaigana block to support scholarly research, historical text transcription, and digital preservation of pre-modern Japanese literature and documents.
