U+1879B "𘞛" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
𘞛
U+1879B "𘞛" Tangut Ideograph-# is a component of the Tangut script, an ancient writing system used to record the extinct Tangut language spoken by the Tangut people of the Western Xia dynasty in northwestern China from the 11th to 16th centuries. This specific ideograph is part of a large, logographic script that contains over 6,000 known characters, many of which have not yet been fully deciphered by modern scholars. The character "𘞛" stands as a testament to the complex and independent writing system developed by the Tangut civilization, and its inclusion in the Unicode standard helps preserve and facilitate digital research into this historically significant but poorly understood language.
