What 𐃑 means

B246 has no secure object gloss. Its number is a modern sign-list label.

Linear B used syllabic signs for Mycenaean, an early form of Greek; ideograms labelled people, animals, goods, or measures in palace accounts.

Why might 𐃑 show as a box?

Linear B's administrative tablets broadly date to around 1450–1150 BCE; B246 has no securely dated first appearance as of 2026.

Linear B's decimal numerals draw on Linear A, an earlier Aegean script. The Cypriot syllabary is another script used for Greek.

In modern text, a browser or editor may show a missing-glyph box if the active font lacks Linear B coverage.

Why does 𐃑 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.
