U+17C7B "饤被" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+17C7B "饤被" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific glyph from the Tangut script, a logographic writing system used for the extinct Tangut language spoken by the Tangut people of the Western Xia dynasty (1038-1227) in what is now northwestern China. This character, numbered as part of the Tangut Ideograph block in Unicode, represents a single morpheme whose exact meaning and phonetic value are derived from historical dictionaries and manuscripts, such as the Pearl in the Palm, which scholars use to decode the over 6,000 known Tangut characters. As a component of a once central but now extinct linguistic tradition, U+17C7B is a key piece in modern efforts to reconstruct Tangut language and history through digital encoding and comparative analysis.
