U+17E06 "𗸆" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific symbol from the Tangut script, a logographic writing system used by the extinct Tangut Empire of northwestern China between the 11th and 16th centuries. This character, assigned the provisional name "Tangut Ideograph-#" in the Unicode Standard due to its unknown or unconfirmed meaning, is part of the Tangut block included in Unicode to preserve and digitally encode this historically important script. The Tangut script comprises thousands of intricate characters, and U+17E06 represents one of many that scholars are still deciphering, often relying on the extensive Tangut dictionary known as the "Pearl in the Palm" to understand its use in translating Buddhist texts and administrative records.
