U+18371 "𘍱" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+18371 "𘍱" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific character from the Tangut script, an ancient logographic writing system used to record the extinct Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty (1038-1227 CE). This particular ideograph is part of a block of over 6,000 Tangut characters encoded in Unicode’s Supplementary Ideographic Plane, representing one of many unique glyphs that were deciphered from historical manuscripts and inscribed texts. The character’s shape and meaning are rooted in the complex, stroke-heavy design of Tangut writing, which was influenced by Chinese calligraphy but developed its own distinct structure. Its inclusion in Unicode ensures digital preservation and study of this historically significant script, aiding scholars in reconstructing the language and culture of the Tangut people.
