U+18C3B "𘰻" Khitan Small Script Character-# is a specific glyph from the Khitan small script, a partially deciphered writing system used between the 10th and 12th centuries by the Khitan people of the Liao dynasty in northern China. This character belongs to a set of over 400 known logographic and syllabic symbols that were used to write the now extinct Khitan language, which is distinct from Chinese. While the exact phonetic or semantic value of U+18C3B remains unidentified by scholars, its inclusion in Unicode helps preserve and enable digital research into this historically significant script, which was only rediscovered and systematically studied in the 20th century.
