U+18C43 "𘱃" Khitan Small Script Character-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+18C43 "𘱃" 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 around the 10th to 12th centuries. This script was employed primarily for administrative and ceremonial purposes, and it consists of over 400 characters that represent syllables and logographic elements, distinct from Chinese characters. The character U+18C43 itself is one of many encoded in the Unicode Standard under the supplementary plane, part of a broader effort to preserve and digitally represent ancient and minority scripts. Its exact phonetic value or meaning is not fully deciphered, as the Khitan Small Script remains only partially understood by modern scholars.
