This character belongs to the Elymaic block. The Elymaic script was used by the Elymaeans, an ancient people who lived in the region of Elam, which is now southwestern Iran. The script was used between the 2nd century BCE and the 3rd century CE to write the Elymaic language, a variant of Aramaic. Elymaic inscriptions are found on coins, stone tablets, and religious monuments, and they provide valuable insights into the history and culture of the region during this period. The inclusion of the Elymaic script in Unicode is important for scholars studying the ancient history of Iran and the broader Middle East, as it allows for the digital encoding and preservation of Elymaic texts. These texts are key to understanding the interactions between the Elymaeans and neighboring civilizations, including the Parthians and the Sassanids, and their role in the broader history of the region..
