About the five dot punctuation symbol

Five Dot Punctuation is a typographic mark composed of five dots arranged in a quincunx pattern, with one dot at each corner and a fifth at the center. It is used in some older or specialized texts as a separator or to indicate a pause, similar in function to a colon or semicolon, and occasionally appears in scholarly or liturgical contexts where a distinctive, non-alphabetic divider is desired.
