U+18B49 "𘭉" Khitan Small Script Character-# Unicode Character

U+18B49 "𘭉" Khitan Small Script Character-# is a specific glyph from the Khitan Small Script, a historical writing system used by the Khitan people of the Liao Dynasty in northern China around the 10th to 12th centuries. This script, which was deciphered only in recent decades, functioned as a logographic and syllabic system distinct from the earlier Khitan Large Script. The character itself represents an individual sign within this complex script, whose exact phonetic or semantic value remains partially understood as scholars continue to analyze surviving inscriptions and manuscripts. Its inclusion in the Unicode Standard helps preserve a fragment of this extinct writing system for digital documentation and study.
