U+18A24 "𘨤" Tangut Component-549 Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
𘨤
U+18A24 "𘨤" Tangut Component-549 is a graphic element from the Tangut script, a complex writing system used for the extinct Tangut language of the Tangut Empire (1038–1227 CE) in what is now northwestern China. This character represents one of hundreds of structural components that combine to form the thousands of logographic Tangut characters, which were primarily used in Buddhist texts and official documents. Unlike a complete Tangut character, Component-549 functions as a building block, often contributing phonetic or semantic cues within larger character compositions. Its encoding in Unicode supports the digital preservation and scholarly study of this historically significant script.
