Linear B Tree Sign

In Linear B records, 𐂷 marks a tree; some catalogues specify an olive tree. It labels what the tablet counts, and modern display depends on font support.

What 𐂷 means

Its broad reading is “tree”; “olive tree” is narrower.

Bennett’s catalogue labels B176 ARBOR (“tree”) and records olea (“olive tree”) as a narrower gloss; Unicode labels it TREE. On tablets, the ideogram marks the item counted beside it.

How does 𐂷 fit into Linear B?

Linear B adapted the earlier Linear A script.

The earliest surviving Linear B archive is the Room of the Chariot Tablets at Knossos, dated Late Minoan II–IIIA1; that dates the archive, not this sign’s first use. Bennett’s catalogue cross-references B176 with B175, another tree sign.

Specialist and archival; its meaning comes from Linear B tablet records.

Why does 𐂷 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.
