U+18B77 "𘭷" Khitan Small Script Character-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+18B77 "𘭷" Khitan Small Script Character-# is a specific glyph from the Khitan Small Script, a historic writing system used by the Khitan people of the Liao Dynasty (907–1125 CE) in northern China. This script is primarily logographic and syllabic, employed to write the now-extinct Khitan language, and was deciphered only partially through comparative study with Chinese records and inscriptions. The character itself represents a unique sound or word component, though its exact phonetic or semantic value is often not fully identified due to the fragmentary nature of surviving texts. Its inclusion in the Unicode Standard, within the Khitan Small Script block (U+18B00–U+18CFF), ensures digital preservation and scholarly access, aiding further research into this medieval script.
