Unicode Version 17.0
𘊻
U+182BB "𘊻" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific logographic glyph from the extinct Tangut script, which was used to write the Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227 CE) in northwestern China. This character, like all Tangut ideographs, represents a single syllable and morpheme and was deciphered from the monumental bilingual "Pearl in the Palm" Tangut-Chinese glossary and other excavated texts. As part of the Tangut block in the Unicode Standard, U+182BB was included to support digital preservation and scholarly study of this complex writing system, which features over 6,000 known characters and was central to the empire's Buddhist and administrative records.
