U+18123 "𘄣" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+18123 "𘄣" Tangut Ideograph-# is a single ideograph from the Tangut script, a complex writing system used to record the now-extinct Tangut language spoken by the Tangut people of the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227) in northwestern China. This specific character, like all Tangut ideographs, was designed with a high number of strokes and intricate structure, reflecting the script’s unique logographic nature that was inspired by Chinese characters but developed independently. It is part of the Tangut block in Unicode, which includes thousands of such ideographs that were deciphered primarily from excavated texts and dictionaries, though the precise meaning and pronunciation of "𘄣" remain largely unknown to modern scholars.
