U+18CCA "𘳊" Khitan Small Script Character-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+18CCA "𘳊" Khitan Small Script Character-# is a specific logograph from the Khitan Small Script, a historical writing system used by the Khitan people of the Liao Dynasty in northern China (907–1125 CE) to represent their now-extinct Khitan language. This script, which is distinct from the larger Khitan Large Script, was primarily utilized for official inscriptions, epitaphs, and imperial decrees, and it functions as a syllabary and logographic system whose individual characters often denote whole words or syllables. The character itself is part of the Unicode Standard's Supplementary Multilingual Plane, having been added in version 13.0 (2020) to facilitate digital preservation and academic study of this poorly understood writing system, though the exact phonetic or semantic value of this particular sign remains subject to ongoing scholarly research due to the limited corpus of deciphered texts.
