Unicode Version 17.0

𘲾

U+18CBE "𘲾" Khitan Small Script Character-# is a specific glyph from the Khitan Small Script, a historic logographic and syllabic writing system used between the 10th and 12th centuries by the Khitan people of the Liao Dynasty in northern China. This character, like others in the script, was employed to write the Khitan language, which is now extinct and remains only partially deciphered by linguists and historians. The "Character-#" label in its name indicates that it is a phonetic or syllabic sign within the script, though its exact pronunciation and meaning may still be a subject of ongoing academic research. In modern digital contexts, this character belongs to the Khitan Small Script block of the Unicode Standard, which was added to preserve and facilitate the study of this ancient writing system.
