The cuneiform ud sign, also ut, and with numerous other syllabic and Sumerogram uses, is a common sign for the mid 14th-century BC Amarna letters and the Epic of Gilgamesh. The sign is constructed upon the single vertical stroke , with various positionings of two wedge-strokes at the left, sometimes approximately centered, or often inscribed upwards to the left, the second wedge-stroke (or 'angled line-stroke'), occasionally inscribed/ligatured upon the first. The wedge-strokes can have any size, are often smaller than the vertical, but as an example, Amarna letter EA 256, can be almost as large as the vertical.
In the Epic of Gilgamesh, sign ud is listed as used for the following linguistic elements:
- lah
- par
- pir
- tam
- tΓΊ
- ud
- ut
- uαΉ
Sumerograms
- BABBAR--"silver"
- UD--"daily", "day", (2nd "daily"-(no. 2))
