U+187D8 "𘟘" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
𘟘
U+187D8 "𘟘" Tangut Ideograph-# is a single logographic symbol from the Tangut script, a writing system used to document the extinct Tangut language of the Xixia Empire (11th-13th centuries). This specific ideograph, identified only by its numeric index in the Unicode standard, represents one of thousands of Tangut characters that were deciphered from manuscripts, primarily Buddhist texts, after the script's rediscovery in the early 20th century. Its exact meaning and pronunciation are not widely known to the general public, as the character is chiefly cataloged for digital preservation and scholarly study of the Tangut script, which was officially added to Unicode in 2016 as part of the Tangut block.
