𘟸

U+187F8 "𘟸" Tangut Ideograph-# is a rare and historically significant symbol from the Tangut script, a logographic writing system used to record the extinct Tangut language during the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227 C.E.) in what is now northwestern China. This particular ideograph is one of thousands of Tangut characters encoded in the Unicode Standard under Plane Two (the Supplementary Ideographic Plane) as part of the Tangut block, which was added to preserve and enable digital study of this ancient script. Like other Tangut ideographs, U+187F8 represents a specific syllable or concept from the Tangut lexicon, though its exact meaning may require further scholarly research due to the limited surviving texts and ongoing decipherment of the script.
