𘲎
U+18C8E "𘲎" Khitan Small Script Character-# is a specific glyph representing a logographic or syllabic component of the Khitan Small Script, a writing system historically used by the Khitan people of the Liao dynasty in northern China during the 10th to 12th centuries. This character is one of many in the script that remains largely undeciphered, though scholars have identified some phonograms and ideograms through comparisons with Chinese texts and Khitan large script inscriptions.
