U+18654 "𘙔" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+18654 "𘙔" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific character from the Tangut script, an ancient writing system used for the now-extinct Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227) in northwestern China. This ideograph represents a unique logographic symbol within the Tangut script, which comprises over 6,000 known characters, and was added to the Unicode Standard as part of a major effort to digitally encode and preserve historical scripts. Its precise meaning or phonetic value may be documented in scholarly databases but is not universally standardized, as Tangut remains only partially deciphered through the study of bilingual texts and dictionaries. The inclusion of this character in Unicode supports academic research, digital typography, and the preservation of cultural heritage from a significant period in Inner Asian history.
