U+17160 "ð—… " Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+17160 "ð—… " Tangut Ideograph-# is one of the thousands of logographic symbols from the extinct Tangut script, which was used to write the Tangut language of the Western Xia Empire (1038–1227) in present-day northwestern China. This specific ideograph, like others in the Tangut block, represents a single syllable or word and was part of a complex writing system based on Chinese characters but with its own unique structural principles. The character was encoded in Unicode version 9.0 in 2016 as part of the Tangut block, which helps preserve and enable digital study of this historical script. Its meaning and pronunciation are typically documented in specialized Tangut dictionaries and philological research, reflecting the script’s role in recording Buddhist texts, legal documents, and literature of the vanished Tangut civilization.
