U+18028 "𘀨" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific character from the Tangut script, which was historically used to write the Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227). This character belongs to a large block of Tangut ideographs encoded in the Unicode standard, representing one of thousands of complex logograms that were deciphered from manuscripts and inscriptions.
