U+182FC "𘋼" Tangut Ideograph-# is part of the Tangut script, an ancient writing system used for the Tangut language during the Western Xia dynasty (1038-1227 CE). This specific ideograph is one of thousands of logographic characters that were decoded from the Tangut script, which was largely lost for centuries until its rediscovery and study by linguists in the 20th century.

Its inclusion in Unicode enables digital preservation and scholarly research of this extinct and complex script.
