U+18265 "𘉥" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+18265 "𘉥" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific character from the Tangut script, a logographic writing system used to record the extinct Tangut language spoken during the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227) in what is now northwestern China. This ideograph represents a distinct word or morpheme, though its exact meaning and pronunciation are often identified only by a numeric index (the "#" placeholder) because many Tangut characters remain undeciphered or are known only from surviving manuscripts. The character is encoded in the Unicode Standard's Tangut block, which was added in version 9.0 (2016) to preserve and facilitate digital study of this historical script, comprising over 6,000 ideographs.
