U+17186 "𗆆" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+17186 "𗆆" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific character from the Tangut script, an ancient logographic writing system used to record the extinct Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227) in northwest China. This character, like all Tangut ideographs, represents a single syllable or morpheme and belongs to a set of over six thousand distinct glyphs that were deciphered primarily through the study of bilingual Chinese-Tangut dictionaries and carved inscriptions. The "-#" designation in its name indicates that its precise semantic meaning or phonetic value has not yet been fully identified or standardized by modern scholars. As part of the Tangut block in Unicode, this ideograph is encoded to support digital preservation and research into this historically significant writing system.
