U+18363 "𘍣" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
𘍣
U+18363 "𘍣" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific logogram from the Tangut script, an ancient writing system used to record the extinct Tangut language spoken during the Western Xia dynasty (1038-1227 CE). This particular character, like all Tangut ideographs, represents a single syllable or morpheme and was part of a vast, complex set of over 6,000 known characters, most of which were deciphered in the 20th century from manuscripts discovered in sites like Khara-Khoto. Its precise meaning remains partially understood within the broader reconstruction of Tangut vocabulary, but it contributes to the invaluable historical record of a civilization that developed its own unique script under imperial patronage.
