U+17177 "ð—…·" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
ð—…·
U+17177 "ð—…·" Tangut Ideograph-# is a single character from the Tangut script, an ancient writing system used for the extinct Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty (11th-13th centuries). This specific ideograph represents one of thousands of complex logograms in that script, which was decoded primarily through the bilingual "Pearl in the Palm" Chinese-Tangut glossary. Its inclusion in Unicode allows for digital preservation and study of this historical script, though the precise semantic meaning of this particular character remains a subject of scholarly research within the larger corpus of Tangut texts.
