Unicode Version 17.0
𗈍
U+1720D "𗈍" Tangut Ideograph-# is a single glyph from the Tangut script, an extinct logographic writing system used to record the Tangut language during the Western Xia dynasty (11th–13th centuries). Its meaning is not precisely defined in standard modern databases due to the highly complex and partially undeciphered nature of the script, but it is classified as a Tangut ideograph representing a specific word or morpheme from that historical language. The character belongs to the Unicode Tangut block, which was added in version 9.0 of the Unicode Standard to preserve this unique historical writing system for digital use, allowing scholars and linguists to access and study these ancient texts more effectively.
