Linear B sign B082

Its reading remains unsettled.

Scholarly editions cite it as *82. Proposed syllable readings are written swa and twa in Latin transcription, but neither is secure. The asterisk marks the scholarly sign label, not a confirmed sound.

The earliest Linear B tablet deposits are associated with Knossos in the later 15th century BCE; the surviving records span ca. 1450–1150 BCE.

What was 𐁚 used for?

It belonged to a record-keeping script, but its own value is unknown.

Linear B adapted the earlier Linear A tradition to write Mycenaean Greek. Its surviving clay tablets mostly record palace inventories, commodity accounts, and allocations; B082 is one sign in that writing system.

What if someone sends 𐁚?

Treat it as a specialist sign reference.

At Pylos, pe-re-82 occurs in a religious setting, and translations treat the whole sequence as a debated deity or sanctuary name. A damaged Mycenae tablet line ending ]82 is conventionally translated as an allocation of one bed. Neither context establishes the meaning of 𐁚 by itself.
