U+18C9C "𘲜" Khitan Small Script Character-# is a specific logographic or syllabic glyph from the Khitan Small Script, a historical writing system used between the 10th and 12th centuries to write the now extinct Khitan language spoken by the Khitan people of the Liao Dynasty in northern China. This particular character, part of the Supplementary Multilingual Plane, belongs to a complex script that combines elements inspired by Chinese characters and phonetic components, though its exact phonetic value or meaning remains uncertain due to the script's partial decipherment.
