What 𐌎 means
It is an Etruscan letter preserved in alphabet lists.
An abecedarium is an alphabet list. 𐌎 appears there, not in words, so no word meaning is attested.
When did Etruscan writing reach Italy?
Greek writing reached Italy in the eighth century BCE.
Settlers from Euboea, a Greek island, brought Greek writing to southern Italy; the Etruscans, an ancient people there, adapted it. Around 700 BCE, inscriptions marked ownership, dedications, religious scenes, and funerary objects. The wider Etruscan alphabet later helped shape Latin writing.
