Unicode Version 17.0
饦布
U+18CBC "饦布" Khitan Small Script Character-# is a specific logographic unit from the Khitan Small Script, a writing system historically used by the Khitan people during the Liao dynasty in medieval China to record the Khitan language. This character, along with hundreds of others in its block, represents a syllable or a morpheme rather than a single phonetic letter, and it was inscribed on monuments, coins, and official seals. While the exact phonetic value of this particular glyph remains undetermined due to the incomplete decipherment of the script, its inclusion in the Unicode Standard since version 13.0 ensures that digital texts can preserve and transmit this rare, historically significant character.
