U+18264 "𘉤" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific character from the Tangut script, an ancient writing system used for the extinct Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227) in what is now northwestern China. This ideograph represents a single, meaningful word or concept in that language, and its inclusion in Unicode allows for the digital preservation, study, and exchange of Tangut texts in modern computing environments.
