𘰂
U+18C02 "𘰂" Khitan Small Script Character-# is a specific glyph from the Khitan Small Script, a historical writing system used by the Khitan people during the Liao Dynasty in northern China from the 10th to 12th centuries. This logographic and phonetic script was employed primarily for administrative, religious, and literary records, but its complete decipherment remains a challenge for modern linguists. The character represents one of many symbols in a complex system that combines ideographic and syllabic elements, and its exact meaning or phonetic value is still under scholarly investigation due to the limited number of surviving texts and inscriptions.
