Unicode Version 17.0
𘙩
U+18669 "𘙩" Tangut Ideograph-# is a glyph from the Tangut script, an ancient writing system used to record the extinct Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227). This specific ideograph represents a single character from the Tangut block of the Unicode Standard, which was encoded to preserve and enable digital study of the over 6,000 known Tangut characters. While its exact meaning as an ideograph is tied to the work of philologists who have decoded fragments of the script, its inclusion in Unicode ensures that scholars and linguists can electronically represent, search, and analyze this historical writing system.
