U+18B87 "𘮇" Khitan Small Script Character-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+18B87 "𘮇" Khitan Small Script Character-# is a specific logographic or syllabic glyph from the Khitan Small Script, a historical writing system used from the 10th to the 12th centuries by the Khitan people of the Liao Dynasty in northern China. This script was employed to write the Khitan language, which remains only partially deciphered by modern scholars, and each character like U+18B87 represents a distinct phonetic or semantic value within that lost linguistic system. As part of the Unicode Standard's Supplementary Multilingual Plane, the inclusion of this character helps preserve and digitally represent a fragment of medieval East Asian history, though its precise meaning is often inferred from context due to the limited surviving texts.
