K with diagonal stroke

K with diagonal stroke (Ꝃ, ꝃ) is a letter of the Latin alphabet, derived from K with the addition of a diagonal bar through the leg.

This letter is used in medieval texts as an abbreviation for kalendas, calends, as well as for karta and kartam, a document or writ.

[1] In the Breton language, this letter is used, mainly from the fifteenth to the twentieth century, to abbreviate Ker, a prefix used in place names, similar to the Welsh caer.

[3] Capital and small K with diagonal stroke is encoded in Unicode as of version 5.1, at codepoints U+A742 and U+A743.
