U+18CA1 "𘲡" Khitan Small Script Character-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+18CA1 "𘲡" Khitan Small Script Character-# is a specific graphical unit within the Khitan Small Script, a historical writing system used by the Khitan people of Northeast Asia to record the Khitan language during the Liao dynasty (907–1125 CE). This script, which consists of both logographic and phonetic characters, was deciphered only partially in modern times through comparative analysis with Chinese texts and bilingual inscriptions. The character U+18CA1 represents an unidentified or unnumbered component within the standard Unicode encoding block for this script, which was added to support the digital preservation and study of this extinct writing system. Its inclusion in Unicode allows scholars and linguists to digitally encode and analyze the fragmented corpus of Khitan Small Script inscriptions found on stelae and other archaeological artifacts.
