U+17E27 "𗸧" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+17E27 "𗸧" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific character from the Tangut script, a complex logographic writing system used to record the extinct Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227) in medieval northwestern China. This ideograph represents one of the thousands of reconstructed characters that were deciphered from Tangut texts, and its meaning is typically recorded in academic dictionaries and the Xixia–Chinese glossaries that scholars have developed to interpret these historical documents.
