𘱘
U+18C58 "𘱘" Khitan Small Script Character-# is a specific logograph from the Khitan Small Script, a historical 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 the script's many syllabic or morphemic signs, which were used to write the now extinct Khitan language, distinct from the later Jurchen and Mongolian scripts. The exact phonetic value and meaning of U+18C58 remain uncertain to scholars, as much of the script's decipherment relies on comparisons with Chinese historical texts and bilingual inscriptions, contributing to ongoing research into the linguistic and cultural heritage of the Khitan Empire.
