Can't output direct glyphs either in MKIV or LMTX

Can't output direct glyphs either in MKIV or LMTX

Hello list. I'm trying to call a direct glyph from the Phaistos font, but
it seems it doesn't work. The font is loaded, the log file says it so:

system          >   12: filename=/home/vantta/.fonts/Phaistos.otf
format=otf foundname=/home/vantta/.fonts/Phaistos.otf
fullname=/home/vantta/.fonts/Phaistos.otf usedmethod=direct

However, the glyph is not displayed in the pdf. I've tried both in MKIV and
LMTX with no luck. Maybe someone here will have a clue.

MWE:
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\definesymbol[arbol]
  [\getnamedglyphdirect{phaistos}{u101F2}]

\starttext
\switchtobodyfont[72pt]
\symbol[arbol]
\stoptext
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

I don’t have the font, but is u101F2 the glyphs’ name, or its code point?

Try this:

   \starttext
   \usemodule [fnt-10]
   \ShowCompleteFont{name:phaistos}{14pt}{1}
   \stoptext
