U+17051 "𗁑" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+17051 "𗁑" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific logogram from the Tangut script, an ancient writing system used to record the extinct Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227 CE). This character belongs to the Tangut block of Unicode, which was encoded in version 9.0 of the standard to preserve and digitally represent the complex, stroke-heavy ideographs that were deciphered from historical texts. The symbol itself, like all Tangut characters, carries a distinct phonetic and semantic value, though its exact meaning is often determined through scholarly analysis of bilingual inscriptions and Buddhist manuscripts. Its inclusion in Unicode facilitates academic research, digital archiving, and global access to this unique segment of human linguistic heritage.
