U+18528 "𘔨" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+18528 "𘔨" Tangut Ideograph-# is a single ideograph from the extinct Tangut script, which was used to write the Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty that flourished in what is now northwestern China from the 11th to the 13th centuries. This specific character represents a unique logogram within the Tangut script's vast repertoire of over 6,000 known ideographs, each typically corresponding to a single syllable or word. The Tangut writing system was largely unknown outside of historical texts until its decipherment began in the 20th century, and U+18528 is part of the Unicode Standard's ongoing effort to encode these characters for digital preservation and scholarly study. Its inclusion allows researchers and linguists to accurately represent and analyze this ancient script in modern computing environments.
