U+17CC4 "𗳄" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+17CC4 "𗳄" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific encoded glyph from the Tangut script, an ancient writing system used to record the extinct Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty in northwest China from the 11th to 16th centuries. This ideograph represents a single character from the vast Tangut logographic script, which comprises thousands of complex characters designed to phonetically and semantically represent the Tangut language, much like Chinese characters function in Mandarin. The character is part of the Tangut ideographs block in Unicode, included to support digital preservation and scholarship of this historical script. As with many Tangut characters, its precise meaning is often only decipherable through specialized linguistic research, as the script was only partially decoded in the 20th century using multilingual inscriptions and dictionaries.
