𘯼

U+18BFC "𘯼" Khitan Small Script Character-# is a logographic symbol from the Khitan Small Script, a writing system used historically by the Khitan people of the Liao dynasty in northern China, primarily between the 10th and 12th centuries. This specific character, identified only by its code point and placeholder description, represents one of hundreds of distinct signs in this largely undeciphered script, which combines phonetic and semantic elements and was used to write the now-extinct Khitan language. In modern digital contexts, the character is part of the Unicode standard’s Supplementary Ideographic Plane, enabling its preservation and study by linguists and historians seeking to understand the Khitan script’s structure and the cultural legacy of the Khitan empire.
