U+18B99 "𘮙" Khitan Small Script Character-# Unicode Character

U+18B99 "𘮙" Khitan Small Script Character-# is a specific glyph from the Khitan Small Script, a historical writing system used by the Khitan people of northern China during the Liao Dynasty (907–1125 CE). This script was employed primarily for writing the Khitan language, which is now extinct, and it remains only partially deciphered by modern scholars. The character represents a syllabic or logographic element, though its exact phonetic or semantic value is often unknown or inferred from context in surviving inscriptions and manuscripts. Its inclusion in Unicode allows for digital preservation and study of this ancient and complex script.
