U+17D69 "𗵩" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

𗵩

U+17D69 "𗵩" Tangut Ideograph-# is a component of the Tangut script, a logographic writing system used to record the extinct Tangut language of the Xixia Empire (1038–1227) in what is now northwestern China. This specific character is part of the Tangut Ideographs block in Unicode, encoded to preserve the intricate and largely undeciphered script that was revived in the 20th century through the study of the "Tangut–Chinese bilingual glossary" and other excavated manuscripts. Each Tangut ideograph, including this one, represents a single morpheme, with its meaning and pronunciation still being actively researched by linguists and historians to better understand the culture, law, and religion of the Tangut civilization.
