Unicode Version 17.0

𘰵

U+18C35 "𘰵" Khitan Small Script Character-# is a specific glyph from the Khitan Small Script, a historical writing system used by the Khitan people of the Liao Dynasty in northern China (907–1125 CE) to represent the now-extinct Khitan language. This character, cataloged in Unicode’s Supplementary Multilingual Plane under the Khitan Small Script block, is a logographic or syllabic sign whose exact phonetic value and meaning remain partially undeciphered by modern scholars, as the script was largely forgotten after the fall of the Liao Empire and is only gradually being reconstructed through fragmentary inscriptions. The inclusion of this character in Unicode helps preserve and enable digital study of this rare script, aiding linguists and historians in understanding the linguistic and cultural heritage of the Khitan people.
