What 𐂝 means
It marks wool as a commodity. Bronze Age Mycenaeans used Linear B ideograms to label goods; numbers gave amounts. Wool tablets track sheep products and textile work, not ordinary words.
Linear A, an earlier Cretan script, had a Minoan wool monogram; Linear B adapted it as B145 with a changed design. Knossos records begin around 1450 BCE; later mainland tablets show wool accounts.
