𘊴

U+182B4 "𘊴" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific glyph from the Tangut script, an ancient logographic writing system used by the Tangut people of the Western Xia dynasty in China from the 11th to the 16th centuries. This character represents a unique Tangut word or concept, and its exact meaning often requires specialized knowledge of the script's complex structure, as each character is composed of multiple strokes and components that encode phonetic and semantic information.
