"CUNEIFORM SIGN LUGAL" is displayed just as rectangle. How can I fix it?

On this page or here in Wikibooks on Sumerian, there are lot of missing characters, where only rectangles are displayed instead.

How can I fix it? I would like to see those characters.

    Under Trusty Tahr here is a nice font package that will allow you to see these characters:

    sudo apt-get install ttf-ancient-fonts

    I tested this on my own Trusty Tahr installation and below is a screenshot showing success on one page:

    and also success on the other:

    And hopefully also success on your system :)

    Notes:

    • After Trusty Tahr the package ttf-ancient-fonts becomes a transitional package for the package fonts-ancient-scripts.
