U+18B18 "𘬘" Khitan Small Script Character-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+18B18 "𘬘" Khitan Small Script Character-# is a specific glyph from the Khitan small script, a historical writing system used by the Khitan people in northern China during the Liao dynasty (907–1125 CE) to record the Khitan language, which is now extinct and only partially deciphered. This character represents one of hundreds of unique logographic or syllabic symbols in the small script, which differs from the larger, more complex Khitan large script, and its precise phonetic or semantic value remains uncertain due to the limited surviving texts and ongoing scholarly research. As part of the Unicode Standard's Supplementary Multilingual Plane, it ensures digital preservation and study of this ancient script, allowing modern linguists and historians to access and analyze encoded fragments of a lost language.
