U+17140 "ð—…€" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific logogram from the Tangut script, an extinct writing system used during the Western Xia dynasty (11th–13th centuries) to represent the Tangut language. This character belongs to a large set of over 6,000 ideographs that were encoded in the Unicode Standard under the Tangut block, which was introduced in version 9.0 in 2016 to support historical and linguistic research. While the exact meaning of this particular ideograph is not widely known outside specialized philological studies, its inclusion in Unicode allows for digital preservation and analysis of Tangut texts, which are critical for understanding the culture, administration, and Buddhist literature of the Western Xia civilization.
