Elymaic Letter Teth

9/23

𐿨 is the Elymaic letter Teth; alone, it cannot spell a complete word. Elymaic writing appears on inscriptions and coins from ancient Elymais. “Teth” is borrowed from the corresponding Imperial Aramaic letter name; Unicode Standard 17.0 says the original Elymaic names are unknown.

Text symbol

What 𐿨 means

It is a consonant letter in Elymaic writing.

The script developed from the official Aramaic handwriting used by the Achaemenid Persian rulers. Transitional graffiti at Tang-e Chilau may date to the first century BCE or earlier; clearer stone inscriptions span the first through third centuries CE. Elymaic writing appears on stone and coins in administrative, royal, religious, and monetary texts.

Elymaic is related to Parthian and Mandaic writing, though scholars debate whether Mandaic is a sibling, ancestor, or descendant. Unicode Standard 17.0 specifies right-to-left writing with non-joining letters; mixed-direction layout and font support can affect display.

Why does 𐿨 show as a box on some devices?

Not every system ships a font for the Elymaic block. Where none is installed, the character shows as an empty box; adding a font such as Noto fixes it. The character itself is still correct and copies correctly.
