U+1705C "𗁜" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific ideograph from the Tangut script, an extinct writing system used to record the Tangut language during the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227). This character belongs to the Tangut Ideographs block (U+17000 to U+18AFF) and is one of over 6,000 ideographs encoded in Unicode to represent the logographic script, which was deciphered primarily through the "Pearl in the Palm" bilingual glossary.
