U+18B9C "𘮜" Khitan Small Script Character-# is a specific glyph from the Khitan Small Script, a complex and largely undeciphered writing system used between the 10th and 12th centuries to write the Khitan language of the Liao Dynasty in northern China. This character is one of many phonetic or logographic symbols in that script, included in the Unicode Standard's Supplementary Multilingual Plane to support historical and linguistic research.
