Unicode Version 17.0
U+17BF1 "𗯱" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific glyph from the Tangut script, an ancient writing system used for the extinct Tangut language spoken during the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227) in what is now northwestern China. This ideograph is part of a large, complex set of logographic characters that were decoded largely from the 20th century onward, with U+17BF1 being cataloged in the Unicode Standard's Tangut block, which includes thousands of such characters. The exact meaning or phonetic value of this particular ideograph may vary depending on the source text, as Tangut characters often represent entire words or syllables in a manner similar to Chinese characters, but with distinct structural components and often with unique historical and cultural significance tied to the Buddhist and administrative texts of the Tangut empire.
