U+1857C "𘕼" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific glyph from the Tangut script, an ancient writing system used to record the extinct Tangut language spoken by the Tangut people during the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227). This character resides in the Tangut Supplement block of Unicode, which encodes additional ideographs discovered through ongoing philological research and digitization of Tangut manuscripts.
