U+18BA2 "𘮢" Khitan Small Script Character-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
𘮢
U+18BA2 "𘮢" Khitan Small Script Character-# is a specific glyph from the Khitan Small Script, a writing system historically used for the Khitan language spoken by the Khitan people, who established the Liao Dynasty in northern China from the 10th to 12th centuries. This character, like others in the Khitan Small Script, represents a syllabic or phonetic sound within the logographic and syllabic hybrid system, which was derived from Chinese characters but adapted for the Khitan language. The symbol itself is part of a block of encoded characters in Unicode that preserves this extinct script for digital use and academic study, though its exact phonetic value remains incompletely deciphered.
