𘱆
U+18C46 "𘱆" Khitan Small Script Character-# is a specific logographic element from the Khitan Small Script, a partially deciphered writing system used by the Khitan people of the Liao Dynasty in northern China from the 10th to the 12th centuries. This character represents one of hundreds of unique symbols in the script, which was designed to write the now-extinct Khitan language by combining elements that denote individual syllables or morphemes. While its exact phonetic value in the Khitan language is not confirmed, researchers have grouped it under a numbered index for systematic study, reflecting ongoing efforts to reconstruct meaning from historical inscriptions and texts.
