U+17E01 "𗸁" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
𗸁
U+17E01 "𗸁" Tangut Ideograph-# is a single ideograph from the Tangut script, a complex logographic writing system used to record the extinct Tangut language of the Xixia Empire (11th–13th centuries). This specific character, like all Tangut ideographs, represents a unique syllable or morpheme within that language, with its precise meaning still being studied by scholars through historical texts. The Tangut script was deliberately created by imperial decree and comprises thousands of intricate characters, each with its own distinct shape, and U+17E01 is one of the many encoded in the Unicode Standard to enable digital preservation and research of this ancient writing system.
