Unicode Version 17.0

𘲕

U+18C95 "𘲕" Khitan Small Script Character-# is one of thousands of logographic and syllabic signs used in the Khitan Small Script, a writing system devised by the Khitan people of the Liao Dynasty in northern China (907–1125 CE) to record their now-extinct language. This specific character, identified by its unique code point in the Unicode standard, represents a particular phonetic or morphemic value within the largely undeciphered script, which was employed alongside the more numerous Khitan Large Script for official and monumental inscriptions. While its exact reading remains uncertain due to limited bilingual texts, the character's inclusion in Unicode helps preserve and enable digital research into this important but enigmatic medieval writing system, reflecting the broader effort to safeguard endangered and historical scripts through modern encoding.
