U+18373 "𘍳" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
𘍳
U+18373 "𘍳" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific glyph from the Tangut script, an extinct logographic writing system used to record the Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty (ca. 1038–1227). This character belongs to the Tangut ideograph block in the Unicode standard, which includes thousands of reconstructed characters derived from Chinese historical sources. Its precise meaning and pronunciation remain largely unknown or debated among scholars due to the fragmentary nature of Tangut texts and the complex, influenced structure of the script. As a result, it is primarily of interest to linguists, historians, and digital encoding specialists working on the preservation and computational analysis of ancient scripts.
