Unicode Version 17.0

ð—®©

U+17BA9 "ð—®©" Tangut Ideograph-# is a single logographic character from the Tangut script, an ancient writing system used for the extinct Tangut language spoken during the Western Xia dynasty in northwestern China from the 11th to 16th centuries. This particular ideograph, identified as one of thousands of Tangut characters recorded in the Unicode Standard since version 9.0, represents a specific concept or word in that language, though its precise meaning often requires specialized linguistic study due to the script’s complex structure and the historical loss of native speakers. Its inclusion in Unicode allows for digital preservation and scholarly research into Tangut texts, which are primarily known from stone inscriptions and Buddhist manuscripts.
