U+17B9B "ð—®›" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+17B9B "ð—®›" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific encoded symbol from the Tangut script, a historical writing system used by the Tangut people of the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227 CE) in what is now northwestern China. This character belongs to a large block of Tangut ideographs in the Unicode Standard, which were added to support the digitization of the approximately 6,000 known Tangut logograms. The Tangut script, designed by imperial decree in 1036, is structurally complex and distinct from Chinese characters, and each ideograph represents a syllable or morpheme of the Tangut language. While the precise meaning or phonetic value of this particular ideograph is not fully specified in standard documentation, its inclusion in Unicode helps preserve and study the historical texts of a once-thriving civilization.
