Unicode Version 17.0
𗀤
U+17024 "𗀤" Tangut Ideograph-# is a single graphical unit within the Tangut script, a complex writing system used between the 11th and 16th centuries in the Western Xia dynasty to write the now-extinct Tangut language. This specific ideograph represents one of the thousands of logograms in the Tangut repertoire, each with its own distinct meaning and pronunciation, though the exact semantic value of this particular character may only be known to specialists who study the limited surviving manuscripts and dictionaries. By being encoded in Unicode, this ancient symbol is preserved in digital form, allowing researchers and linguists to include it in modern text, databases, and typographic studies.
