U+18C98 "𘲘" Khitan Small Script Character-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+18C98 "𘲘" Khitan Small Script Character-# is a specific grapheme from the Khitan Small Script, a logographic and syllabic writing system historically used by the Khitan people of the Liao Dynasty in northern China during the 10th to 12th centuries. This script, which remains only partially deciphered, was employed for recording the now extinct Khitan language and is distinct from the earlier Khitan Large Script. The character "#" often indicates that the exact phonetic or semantic value of this particular glyph has not been definitively identified by scholars, placing it among many other undeciphered signs in the script. Its inclusion in the Unicode Standard helps preserve the historical record and facilitates digital research, documentation, and analysis of this ancient writing system.
