A page of the Linear A Lexicon's research wiki, in [Wiki](<https://linear-a.ai/wiki/index.md>) › [Kaphtor Lexicon](<https://linear-a.ai/wiki/lexicon/index.md>) › [Signs](<https://linear-a.ai/wiki/lexicon/signs/index.md>) › [Syllabic signs](<https://linear-a.ai/wiki/lexicon/signs/syllabic/index.md>). Updated 2026-10-27.

**Status: speculative.** A speculative value.

## Phonetic value

| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Value | /mo/ |
| Alternates | none |
| Linear B | B 15, value None |
| Linear B Unicode | U+10017 |
| Linear B note | Homomorph queried, not established: Linear B \*15 is mo (Montecchi 2024, 173). |
| Neutralization class | none |

### Forms cited for the value

- Speculative: homomorph of Linear B \*15 mo, queried by Montecchi: A 329 "= B 15 ??" (Montecchi 2024, 173, Fig. 9.1).
- Shape: a vertical stem with a hook or closed loop at the upper left and two strokes running right, as Linear B mo. Linear A has no other mo sign.
- Two attestations, both at Haghia Triada: DA-RU-\*329, read Dārum (HT 7b .2), and VIR-\*329 (HT 128b .1).
- Four tests: crossword 1 of 1 readable context (DA-RU-MO Dārum; VIR has no syllabic value, so VIR-\*329 is untestable); inscription HT 7b more readable, none less; complementary distribution: no other Linear A sign writes mo; structural: fills the empty AB15 cell of the m-series. sign_proposer.py does not rank it (eight values tie at 0.813).

### Note

Speculative. Petrakis and Salgarella list A 329 without a Linear B homomorph (Petrakis and Salgarella 2026, 31, Fig. 0.1, after Del Freo 2023).
