Unicode Version 17.0

ð—‚¼

U+170BC "ð—‚¼" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific glyph from the Tangut script, an ancient writing system used for the extinct Tangut language spoken in the Tangut Empire of northwestern China between the 11th and 16th centuries. This character is part of the Tangut Ideographs block in Unicode, which includes thousands of logograms that were decoded primarily from the "Pearl in the Palm" and other historical manuscripts. Like all Tangut ideographs, U+170BC represents a unique morpheme or word, and its precise meaning and pronunciation are determined through comparative study of Tangut texts and bilingual glossaries. The inclusion of such characters in Unicode helps preserve and facilitate research into this historically significant but endangered script.
