Unicode Version 17.0
𗀓
U+17013 "𗀓" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific glyph from the Tangut script, an ancient writing system used to record the extinct Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty (11th–13th centuries). This character belongs to a large repertoire of over 6,000 ideographs that were logographic, with each symbol representing a word or morpheme, and it was encoded in Unicode’s Tangut block to support digital preservation and scholarly study. Its precise meaning remains undetermined, as ongoing research deciphers the script from surviving manuscripts and inscriptions.
