U+17F7F "𗽿" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
𗽿
U+17F7F "𗽿" Tangut Ideograph-# is a part of the Tangut script block, which encodes the historical writing system used by the Tangut Empire in northwestern China from the 11th to 16th centuries. This specific ideograph, identified only as "#" due to its yet undeciphered or unnamed status in the Unicode standard, represents one of the thousands of logographic characters from the Tangut script, which was inspired by Chinese characters but features a much more complex and unique structure. The character is digitized primarily for academic and historical study, allowing scholars to preserve and analyze the extinct Tangut language and its vast corpus of manuscripts, including Buddhist texts and legal documents.
