U+18CB3 "𘲳" Khitan Small Script Character-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+18CB3 "𘲳" Khitan Small Script Character-# is a logographic symbol belonging to the Khitan Small Script, a historical writing system used between the 10th and 12th centuries by the Khitan people, who ruled the Liao Dynasty in northern China. This specific character represents a phonetic or syllabic element within that script, which was primarily used to write the now extinct Khitan language. The Khitan Small Script was deciphered only partially in modern times through comparative analysis with Chinese historical records and bilingual inscriptions. U+18CB3 was added to the Unicode Standard in 2017 as part of the Khitan Small Script block, which includes over 470 characters, helping preserve and digitally encode this ancient writing system for scholarly study and digital representation.
