U+18462 "𘑢" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific character from the Tangut script, an ancient logographic writing system used to write the extinct Tangut language of the Western Xia Empire (1038–1227). This particular ideograph belongs to a large block of over 6,000 encoded Tangut characters in the Unicode Standard, which were deciphered primarily from the 20th-century discovery of bilingual texts.
