U+170FB "𗃻" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

𗃻

U+170FB "𗃻" Tangut Ideograph-# is a single logographic symbol from the ancient Tangut script, which was used to write the extinct Tangut language spoken by the Tangut people during the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227). This character is part of the Tangut Ideographs block in Unicode, encompassing thousands of intricately composed characters that resemble Chinese writing but are structurally and phonetically distinct. Historically inscribed on documents, monuments, and texts, these symbols represent one of the world's most complex and only partially deciphered writing systems, with U+170FB specifically serving as a placeholder or unidentified character (indicated by the “#” marker) in the Unicode standard until its precise meaning is fully reconstructed by linguists and epigraphers.
