U+1717F "ð—…¿" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
ð—…¿
U+1717F "ð—…¿" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific encoded symbol from the Tangut script, an ancient writing system used for the extinct Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227). This ideograph represents one of the thousands of logographic characters that were meticulously invented to write Tangut, a language related to Tibetan and Burmese. The character has been assigned to Unicode's Tangut block (U+17000 to U+187FF), which was added to the standard in Version 9.0 (2016) to support digital preservation and study of this historical script. Its exact meaning remains under scholarly research, as many Tangut characters are still being deciphered from surviving manuscripts and inscriptions.
