U+17F9E "𗾞" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
𗾞
U+17F9E "𗾞" Tangut Ideograph-# is a rarely used character from the Tangut script, an ancient writing system developed during the Tangut-led Western Xia dynasty in medieval China. This specific ideograph, cataloged under the Unicode Tangut block, represents a logogram from the Tangut language, which was devised by imperial command around 1036 CE to record the now-extinct Tangut language. The character's precise meaning is derived from a large, complex set of over 6,000 known Tangut glyphs, and its inclusion in Unicode allows for the digital preservation and study of this historically significant but difficult to decipher script.
