Unicode Linear A Block Architecture & Minoan Epigraphy

Linear A was standardized in Unicode Standard Version 7.0 (June 2014) in the Supplementary Multilingual Plane (Plane 1) at code points U+10600 through U+1077F. Containing 341 standardized characters, the block incorporates the corpus codified in the seminal Recueil des inscriptions en linéaire A (GORILA, 1976–1985) by Louis Godart and Jean-Pierre Olivier. Linear A represents the undeciphered language of Minoan civilization (~1800–1450 BCE), distinct from the Greek-encoding Linear B.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I copy and paste Linear A symbols?

Click directly on any Linear A or Greek symbol button in this directory. The character copies to your system clipboard instantly and can be pasted into any application with Ctrl+V or Cmd+V.

Has Linear A been deciphered?

No. While many syllabic signs have phonetic values presumed similar to their Linear B descendants, the underlying Minoan language remains unclassified and undeciphered. It is not an early form of Greek.

What is the GORILA classification system?

GORILA refers to the Recueil des inscriptions en linéaire A, the definitive 5-volume corpus compiled by Louis Godart and Jean-Pierre Olivier (1976–1985). It establishes the standard sign catalogue numbers (such as A520, A601, and A800) used across academic epigraphy and Unicode.

How did Minoan fractional signs (A800–A807) work?

Minoan scribes used dedicated fractional symbols to record sub-units of dry and liquid measures (such as grain, wine, and olive oil) on administrative tablets, with recent metrological research reconstructing values corresponding to base fractions like 1/2, 1/4, 1/8, and 1/16.

Which fonts support displaying Linear A Unicode characters?

Because Linear A resides in Unicode Plane 1 (U+10600–U+1077F), it requires a font with Aegean script coverage such as Google Noto Sans Linear A, Aegean by George Douros, or Segoe UI Historic on modern Windows, macOS, and Linux systems.
