U+17162 "ð—…¢" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
ð—…¢
U+17162 "ð—…¢" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific logogram from the Tangut script, an ancient writing system used during the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227) to record the now-extinct Tangut language. This character is part of the Tangut block in Unicode, which encompasses thousands of ideographs that were deciphered from historical manuscripts and inscriptions. The Tangut script, modeled after Chinese characters, is highly complex with over 6,000 known glyphs, and each ideograph like U+17162 represents a distinct word or morpheme, contributing to our understanding of this unique and largely forgotten culture.
