Unicode Version 17.0
U+18CB4 "𘲴" Khitan Small Script Character-# is a specific logogram from the Khitan Small Script, a historical writing system used by the Khitan people of the Liao Dynasty in northern China from the 10th to the 12th centuries. This character represents one of several hundred distinct symbols in the script, which was primarily used for writing the now extinct Khitan language. Because the exact phonetic or semantic value of many individual Khitan characters, including U+18CB4, remains unknown or debated among linguists, it is cataloged in the Unicode Standard under a generic placeholder name indicating its position in the script's repertoire. Its inclusion in Unicode ensures that digital texts and scholarly research on the Khitan language can accurately represent this ancient script for preservation and study.
