𘱳

U+18C73 "𘱳" Khitan Small Script Character-# is a specific logogram from the Khitan Small Script, a historical writing system used between the 10th and 12th centuries by the Khitan people, who ruled the Liao Dynasty in northern China. This character represents one of many phonetic or syllabic values in the script, which was designed to record the now-extinct Khitan language and remains only partially deciphered by modern linguists. Its exact phonetic or semantic meaning is often unconfirmed, as the script's decipherment relies on fragmentary bilingual inscriptions alongside Chinese texts. The character is encoded in the Khitan Small Script block of the Unicode Standard, which includes over 400 symbols aimed at preserving and enabling digital study of this ancient writing system.
