U+18CC7 "𘳇" Khitan Small Script Character-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+18CC7 "𘳇" Khitan Small Script Character-# is a specific glyph from the Khitan Small Script, a historically significant writing system used by the Khitan people of the Liao Dynasty in northern China from the 10th to the 12th centuries. This particular character, numbered with a hash mark to indicate its place within the non-standardized set of ideographic and phonetic signs, represents one of the hundreds of logograms or syllabograms that formed the script's complex corpus. Unlike the better-known Khitan Large Script, the Small Script was inspired by Chinese characters and the Uyghur alphabet, employing a mix of phonetic and semantic components to record the now-extinct Khitan language. Today, these characters are preserved in a limited number of inscriptions and manuscripts, with each encoded character like U+18CC7 being carefully digitized to aid historical linguistic research, though its exact pronunciation and meaning often remain undeciphered.
