Unicode Version 17.0

𘅔

U+18154 "𘅔" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific character from the Tangut script, an ancient writing system used to record the language of the Tangut Empire (11th–16th centuries) in what is now northwestern China. This character, assigned the provisional label "Tangut Ideograph-#" in the Unicode Standard, represents one of over 6,000 known Tangut logograms, each typically conveying a single syllable and morpheme. The Tangut script was devised by imperial decree in 1036 CE and is characterized by its complex, dense strokes and largely undeciphered vocabulary, though modern scholarship has made significant progress in reading many inscriptions. U+18154 is encoded in the Tangut block of Unicode’s Supplementary Multilingual Plane, ensuring digital preservation of these rare historical symbols for linguistic research and documentation.
