Unicode Version 17.0

𗃆

U+170C6 "𗃆" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific glyph within the Tangut script block, which encodes the historical writing system used for the extinct Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227). This particular ideograph is a component of the vast Tangut lexicon, which comprises thousands of logographic characters, each representing a word or morpheme, and is part of a comprehensive reconstruction effort based on multilingual texts like the Tangut translation of Chinese Buddhist scriptures. Although its exact meaning and phonetic value are still subject to scholarly research, the character reflects the intricate visual complexity of Tangut script, characterized by dense strokes and radical-like components that distinguish it from Chinese characters.
