U+18BB2 "𘮲" Khitan Small Script Character-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+18BB2 "𘮲" Khitan Small Script Character-# is a specific logographic or syllabic glyph from the historical Khitan small script, a writing system used between the 10th and 12th centuries by the Khitan people of the Liao Dynasty in northern China to write the now extinct Khitan language. This particular character, represented by a unique abstract symbol, belongs to a set of over 400 known Khitan small script characters that were deciphered primarily through the study of monumental inscriptions and comparative analysis with Chinese and Tangut texts. While its exact phonetic value or meaning is not fully confirmed due to the limited corpus of surviving texts, it contributes to the ongoing scholarly effort to reconstruct this ancient script, which is encoded in the Unicode Standard’s Supplementary Multilingual Plane to preserve and enable digital representation of this rare and culturally significant writing system.
