U+1CB8 "Ჸ" Georgian Mtavruli Capital Letter Elifi Unicode Character

U+1CB8 "Ჸ" Georgian Mtavruli Capital Letter Elifi is a stylistic uppercase form of the Georgian script letter Elifi, which is part of the extended Mtavruli range used primarily for decorative or ceremonial headings rather than standard text. This character corresponds to the lowercase Mkhedruli letter "ⴸ" (Elifi), and its inclusion in Unicode supports the historic and calligraphic tradition of rendering Georgian in a distinctive majuscule style, often seen in inscriptions, titles, or religious manuscripts. The Mtavruli script, unlike the more common modern alphabet, lacks a true case distinction in everyday usage, making U+1CB8 a specialized glyph that preserves a unique aspect of Georgian typographic heritage.
