U+18550 "𘕐" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
𘕐
U+18550 "𘕐" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific encoded character from the Tangut script, which was historically used to write the extinct Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty in northwest China from the 11th to the 16th centuries. This ideograph is part of the Tangut block in the Unicode Standard, where individual characters are often identified by their inventory number in the original Tangut dictionary, the "Homophones" or "Sea of Characters", rather than by a known semantic meaning. The character serves as a digital representation of a unique logographic symbol from that writing system, allowing for the preservation and study of this ancient script in modern computing environments.
