What 𐣻 means
It marks one unit in Hatran's number system.
Hatran was an Aramaic script used at Hatra, an ancient city in Iraq. Inscriptions there date from 98–97 BCE to about 241 CE; a broader chronology places Hatran writing around 50 BCE–275 CE.
Written right to left, Hatran numerals repeat 𐣻 for 2, 3, and 4. Its forms for 1, 10, and 20 resemble earlier Aramaic numerals; its 5 matches Old Syriac. Hatran signs may have shaped Middle Persian numerals, and Middle Persian writing later displaced Hatran. Inscriptions appear on pottery, stone, and economic records.

For modern counts, use 1; a box means the font lacks 𐣻.

Questions people ask
1Why does 𐣻 show as a box on some devices?
Not every system ships a font for the Hatran 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.
