Unicode Version 17.0
𘃸
U+180F8 "𘃸" Tangut Ideograph-# is a glyph from the Tangut script, a historical writing system used for the extinct Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty in medieval China. This specific ideograph is encoded in the Tangut Supplement Unicode block and represents one of the thousands of logographic characters created in the 11th century by order of Emperor Li Yuanhao to facilitate written communication in the Tangut kingdom. The character's precise meaning remains largely uninterpreted due to the limited state of Tangut decipherment, but it contributes to the ongoing scholarly effort to reconstruct and understand the language and culture of the Tangut people through their unique and complex script.
