U+17D09 "𗴉" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+17D09 "𗴉" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific glyph representing a single ideograph from the extinct Tangut script, which was used to write the Tangut language of the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227) in what is now northwestern China. This particular character is one of thousands of Tangut ideographs that were encoded in the Unicode Standard under the Tangut block, added to support the digital preservation and study of this complex, logographic writing system that was deciphered primarily through bilingual texts like the "Pearl in the Palm" and the Tangut translation of Chinese Buddhist scriptures.
