What 𐹾 means
It is a Rumi fraction for two-thirds. The earliest surviving description appears in work by the Arabic mathematician al-Uqlīdisī, dated 952–53 CE. Ibn al-Bannāʾ’s calculation tradition includes this fraction; a copy of his work in Rabat, Morocco, was completed in 1503.
From the 10th to 17th centuries CE, Rumi numerals served calculations, accounts, manuscript page numbers, chapter divisions, quire marks (for sheet bundles), and astronomy. Unicode links them to Egyptian Coptic or Greek-Coptic numerals; a Fez account traces Fasi numerals to older Rumi notation. Scribes varied their shapes across manuscripts and periods, so 𐹾 is representative.
