U+17E55 "𗹕" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+17E55 "𗹕" Tangut Ideograph-# is a single logographic character from the extinct Tangut script, which was used to write the Tangut language spoken by the Tangut people in the Tangut Empire during the 11th to 16th centuries in what is now northwestern China. This specific ideograph belongs to a large and complex writing system that was deciphered primarily from texts found in the Khara-Khoto ruins, and it represents a meaningful word or morpheme in the Tangut language, though its precise semantic value and phonetic reading are often determined through scholarly analysis of ancient dictionaries and multilingual inscriptions. The character's inclusion in the Unicode Standard as part of the Tangut Ideographs block enables its digital representation and study, preserving a vital piece of historical linguistic heritage that reveals the sophisticated administrative, religious, and literary culture of the Tangut civilization.
