U+187BA "𘞺" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific character from the Tangut script, an ancient writing system used to record the extinct Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty in northwestern China. This ideograph is part of a large block of Tangut characters encoded in the Unicode Standard to preserve and enable digital representation of historical texts. The character's exact meaning and phonetic value are typically studied by specialists in Tangut philology, as many ideographs remain only partially deciphered due to the complexity of the script and the limited corpus of surviving documents.
