U+18017 "𘀗" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific glyph from the Tangut script, a complex logographic writing system used to write the extinct Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227 C.E.). This character, assigned to the Tangut Supplement block, represents one of thousands of individual ideographs in the script, which was deciphered primarily through the study of bilingual Chinese-Tangut texts and dictionaries.
