Unicode Version 17.0
𗺟
U+17E9F "𗺟" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific glyph from the Tangut script, an ancient writing system used to record the extinct Tangut language spoken during the Western Xia dynasty in northwest China. This particular ideograph, like all Tangut characters in the Unicode block, was digitized as part of an effort to preserve and study the complex logographic script, which comprises thousands of distinct characters. It appears as an esoteric symbol in modern digital fonts that include the Tangut range, primarily serving academic research, linguistic analysis, and historical documentation of the Tangut civilization and its unique literary and administrative records.
