Linear A Sign A583

A583 is a sign label, not a translated word. The Linear A language remains undeciphered as of 2026.

Linear A recorded goods and workers on clay tablets and appeared on votive objects—offerings left at sacred places.

Cretan Hieroglyphic, an earlier Cretan script, was used around 2000–1650 BCE; Linear A followed around 1850–1450 BCE. Later, Linear B adapted many Linear A signs for Mycenaean Greek, an early form of Greek. Reused shapes need not share readings. Unicode lists A583 with AB120 and A706 H as a complex sign, not a translation.
