U+17E11 "𗸑" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
𗸑
U+17E11 "𗸑" Tangut Ideograph-# is a logogram from the extinct Tangut script, which was used to write the Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227) in present-day northwestern China. This specific character, part of the Tangut block in Unicode’s Supplementary Multilingual Plane, represents a unique word or morpheme from the Tangut lexicon, which was deciphered largely through bilingual texts like the Tangut-Chinese glossary known as the Pearl in the Palm. The Tangut script is complex, with over 6,000 known characters, and U+17E11 is a small but culturally important artifact of this lost civilization’s writing system, preserved digitally for modern scholarly study.
