U+1709C "𗂜" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
𗂜
U+1709C "𗂜" Tangut Ideograph-# is part of the Tangut block, which encodes the logographic script used to write the extinct Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty in medieval China. This specific ideograph represents a unique character from the Tangut script, which consists of thousands of complex logograms, many of which remain undeciphered or without a standardized meaning outside of scholarly reconstruction. The character was added to Unicode in version 9.0 in 2016 as part of a larger effort to preserve and digitally represent the Tangut writing system.
