U+17CAD "ð—²" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
ð—²
U+17CAD "ð—²" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific glyph from the Tangut script, a historically significant writing system used to document the extinct Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227 C.E.). This character is part of the Tangut block of Unicode, which encodes thousands of ideographs that were deciphered through the study of the Tangut–Chinese bilingual dictionary "The Pearl in the Palm." Each Tangut ideograph, including this one, represents a unique syllable or word, and its inclusion in Unicode allows for digital preservation and study of this ancient script.
