U+170F5 "𗃵" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
𗃵
U+170F5 "𗃵" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific glyph from the Tangut script, a complex logographic writing system used to record the extinct Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227 C.E.). This particular ideograph, cataloged in the Tangut block of the Unicode Standard, represents a unique character whose precise meaning, like many Tangut symbols, is known only through scholarly reconstruction of historical texts and dictionaries. It serves as a digital representation of a fragment of this ancient civilization's written heritage, allowing for modern computational storage and study of a script that was only partially deciphered in the 20th century.
