U+17F28 "𗼨" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific encoded ideograph from the Tangut script, an extinct writing system used for the Tangut language during the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227) in what is now northwestern China. This character represents one of thousands of logograms that were deciphered from historical manuscripts and inscriptions, with many still under scholarly analysis for their precise meanings and phonetic values.
