Reversed Ze (Ԑ ԑ; italics: Ԑ ԑ) is a letter of the Cyrillic script. Its form is a reversed Cyrillic letter Ze (З з З з). It resembles the Latin letter epsilon (Ɛ ɛ) and the Greek letter Epsilon (Ε ε), as well as a hand-written form of the uppercase Latin E and Cyrillic letter Ye, but has different origins from them. Reversed Ze was added to the Unicode 5.0 Standard, but is still uncommon in most Cyrillic fonts.

Reversed Ze is used in the Enets. In Enets it represents /æ/.[1][2] It was thought to have been used in the Khanty language, but it turns out there is no proof it is used in that language.[3]
