U+1B0F6 "𛃶" Hentaigana Letter Ri-6 Unicode Character
U+1B0F6 "𛃶" Hentaigana Letter Ri-6 is a specialized character from the Hentaigana block, representing a historic variant of the Japanese hiragana syllable "ri" (り). Hentaigana were cursive and often stylized forms of hiragana used in classical Japanese writing before the standard set was officially codified in the early 20th century. This particular character is named "Ri-6" to denote its specific variant among multiple historical shapes for the same syllable, as cataloged in the Unicode standard for the purpose of preserving and enabling digital representation of premodern Japanese texts. Its inclusion allows scholars, archivists, and typographers to accurately render historical manuscripts, calligraphy, and literary works that employ this now obsolete but culturally significant script.
