U+17CF0 "𗳰" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+17CF0 "𗳰" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific glyph from the extinct Tangut script, which was used to write the Tangut language during the Western Xia dynasty in China (1038–1227). This ideograph represents a single morpheme or word within that logographic writing system, which was deciphered in the 20th century largely through bilingual texts like the Tangut translation of the Lotus Sutra. The character is part of the Tangut block in Unicode, assigned to encode historical scripts for digital preservation, though its exact semantic meaning may require further specialized philological research due to the limited number of surviving manuscripts.
