U+17C9B "ð—²›" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
ð—²›
U+17C9B "ð—²›" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific glyph from the Tangut script, a logographic writing system used during the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227) to write the now extinct Tangut language. This character belongs to the Tangut Ideographs block in Unicode, which was encoded to preserve and support the study of historical texts and inscriptions from that era, including Buddhist scriptures, legal documents, and imperial records. As a complex ideograph, its exact meaning is typically identified through catalog numbers like "#" or specific dictionary references, as the script contains over 6,000 known characters, many of which have been deciphered by modern scholars to reconstruct the language's phonology and syntax.
