Cypriot Syllabary Unicode Characters page 1

The Cypriot Syllabary block contains characters used in the Cypriot syllabary, an ancient script used on the island of Cyprus from the 11th to the 4th century BCE. The script is a syllabary, meaning each character represents a syllable. It was used primarily for writing the Greek dialect of Cyprus, as well as the Eteocypriot language. The Cypriot syllabary is closely related to the Linear B script, and its decipherment in the 20th century provided valuable insights into the ancient history of Cyprus. This block includes all the characters used in the script, reflecting its significance in the ancient Mediterranean world..
