U+183A4 "𘎤" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+183A4 "𘎤" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific glyph from the Tangut script, an ancient logographic writing system used to record the extinct Tangut language of the Tangut Empire, which flourished in northwestern China from the 11th to 14th centuries. This character belongs to the Tangut Ideographs block of the Unicode Standard, which encodes thousands of complex, brushstroke-based symbols derived from Chinese calligraphic influence but structurally unique to Tangut texts. Typically found in historical manuscripts and carved on stele, such characters are crucial for philological study, as each ideograph represents a single word or morpheme, and this particular character is identified by its unique index number in the Tangut character repertoire, though its specific meaning and reading often require consultation of specialized dictionaries and surviving bilingual glossaries.
