U+186BE "𘚾" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
𘚾
U+186BE "𘚾" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific written symbol from the extinct Tangut script, which was used to document the Tangut language during the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227 C.E.) in what is now northwestern China. This particular ideograph represents a unique lexical entry within the Tangut script corpus, which consists of over 6,000 known logographic characters developed by imperial decree to be both complex and distinct from Chinese characters. The character was officially encoded in Unicode’s Tangut block as part of version 9.0 in 2016, following extensive scholarly research and digital documentation efforts to preserve one of the world’s most intricate and historically significant writing systems.
