Source: Browser Default
U+A6E5 "ꛥ" Bamum Letter Ki is part of the Bamum script, which was originally developed in the late 19th and early 20th centuries by King Ibrahim Njoya of the Bamum people in present-day Cameroon. This specific letter represents the syllable or sound "ki" in the script, which was used to write the Bamum language. The Bamum script evolved through several stages, from a pictographic system to a more syllabic form, and U+A6E5 belongs to the later, standardized phase encoded in the Unicode Standard to preserve and digitally support this important African writing tradition.
