𘱦

U+18C66 "𘱦" Khitan Small Script Character-# is a single logographic or syllabic glyph from the Khitan Small Script, a historical writing system used by the Khitan people of the Liao Dynasty in northern China during the 10th to 12th centuries. This script was employed to record the now-extinct Khitan language, which remains only partially deciphered by modern scholars through comparisons with Chinese historical texts and bilingual inscriptions. The specific character represented by this codepoint is identified primarily by its visual form rather than a confirmed phonetic or semantic value, as many Khitan Small Script characters have not yet been fully interpreted. Its inclusion in the Unicode Standard ensures that this ancient script can be preserved digitally and studied by linguists and historians working to unlock the history of the Khitan Empire.
