U+171F1 "𗇱" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
𗇱
U+171F1 "𗇱" Tangut Ideograph-# is a single encoded glyph from the Tangut script, an ancient writing system used by the Tangut people during the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227) in what is now northwestern China. This specific character represents one of the thousands of logographic symbols in the Tangut script, which was designed to be visually complex and structurally unique to the Tangut language. While its exact meaning may require specialized knowledge of the script or reference to the Tangut-Chinese dictionary known as the Pearl in the Palm, it is part of a historical block in Unicode that preserves the cultural and linguistic heritage of a once powerful but now extinct civilization.
