The Wikipedia has the following information about this codepoint:
The cuneiform qut sign, (also qud, aspirated 't', unaspirated 'd') sign is found in both the 14th century BC Amarna letters and the Epic of Gilgamesh. It is a multi-use sign with 9 syllabic/alphabetic uses in the Epic of Gilgamesh; in the Amarna letters it is extremely common in the prostration formula, typical first paragraph of a letter, saying typically: "7 and 7 times, I bow down" (to the Pharaoh, when addressed to the Pharaoh); a small group of Amarna letters are addressed to a different distinct personage in Egypt, under the Pharaoh.
In the Epic of Gilgamesh, the sign is used for many syllabic meanings, as well as two Sumerograms, as follows:
- has
- haαΉ£
- kut
- qud
- qut
- Ε‘el
- Ε‘il
- tar
- αΉar
- SILA, "street Sumerogram"
- TAR, for Goddess Ishtar's name, DIΕ .TAR
The usage numbers for the sign are as follows in the Epic: has-(2), haαΉ£-(7), kut-(6), qud-(8), qut-(27), Ε‘el-(1), Ε‘il-(4), tar-(16), αΉar-(9), SILA-(3), for Akkadian language "sΕ«qu", 'street', TAR-(17), exclusively for IΕ‘tar's name.
