linear a sign a801

Linear A Sign A801

As of 2026, Linear A remains undeciphered, so no accepted translation is known for 𐝡; “A801” is a catalogue label, not a word. Linear A appears on Cretan accounting records and in ritual offerings around 1800–1450 BCE; the older Cretan Hieroglyphic writing system also coexisted with it, but as of 2026 their relationship remains unresolved. After about 1450 BCE, Linear B reused some Linear A sign forms to write Greek.

What 𐝡 means

No; A801 is a catalogue label. It identifies this sign in a catalogue; it is not a word to pronounce or translate.

Do Linear A and Linear B signs have the same reading?

Not necessarily. Linear B reused some sign forms also found in Linear A to write Greek, but a similar shape alone does not establish that a Linear A sign had the same reading.

Why does 𐝡 show as a box on some devices?

Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
