𘳌

U+18CCC "𘳌" Khitan Small Script Character-# is one of over 470 individual glyphs encoded in the Khitan Small Script block, which represents a historical writing system used by the Khitan people of the Liao dynasty in northern China from the 10th to the 12th century. This specific character, like others in the script, is a logographic or syllabic sign that was part of a complex writing system designed to represent the Khitan language, which remains largely undeciphered today. Its inclusion in Unicode, added as part of version 13.0 in 2020, allows for digital preservation and scholarly study of this extinct script, enabling researchers to store, transmit, and analyze the character alongside other historical and modern texts. The precise phonetic or semantic value of the character is not fully known, but it contributes to the broader effort to document and understand the linguistic and cultural heritage of the Khitan civilization.
