U+17E8B "𗺋" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+17E8B "𗺋" Tangut Ideograph-# is a specific encoded grapheme within the Tangut script block, representing an ideograph from the extinct Tangut language used in the historical Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227). This character is part of a large set of logographic symbols that were deciphered primarily through the study of the "Pearl in the Palm," a Tangut-Chinese bilingual glossary, and it denotes a particular morpheme or concept from that medieval Sinospheric culture. Its inclusion in Unicode allows for the digital preservation and scholarly study of this complex writing system, which features thousands of intricately structured characters distinct from Chinese Hanzi.
