U+1D2C8 "𝋈" Kaktovik Numeral Eight Unicode Character

U+1D2C8 "𝋈" Kaktovik Numeral Eight is a numeric symbol derived from the Kaktovik Inupiaq numeral system, which was created by schoolchildren in Kaktovik, Alaska in the 1990s to represent the base-20 counting system of the Inupiaq language. This specific glyph depicts eight as a small horizontal line above a set of joined vertical strokes that visually echo the traditional tally marks used in the system. It was added to the Unicode Standard as part of the Kaktovik Numerals block to support the digital preservation and revitalization of the Inupiaq language and its unique arithmetic representation.
