Unicode Version 17.0

𘙠

U+18660 "𘙠" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific glyph from the Tangut script, a logographic writing system used for the extinct Tangut language of the Western Xia Empire (1038–1227). This character belongs to the Tangut Supplement block, which was added to Unicode in version 14.0 (2021) to accommodate additional ideographs identified through ongoing philological research, particularly from the dictionary "Homophones" and other excavated texts. As a Tangut ideograph, it represents a single syllable or morpheme, though its precise reading and meaning are still being decoded by scholars who rely on historical glossaries and comparative analysis with Chinese sources.
