U+17FF1 "ð—¿±" Tangut Ideograph-# Unicode Character
U+17FF1 "ð—¿±" Tangut Ideograph-# is a historically significant glyph from the Tangut script, a logographic writing system used during the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227 CE) to write the extinct Tangut language. This ideograph resides in the Tangut Supplement block of Unicode, specifically within a range of characters added to support the digital encoding of this complex script for scholarly and archival purposes. The symbol itself represents a single Tangut word, though its precise meaning and pronunciation are subjects of ongoing philological research, as many Tangut characters have been deciphered through comparative analysis of the 16th-century Tangut–Chinese bilingual dictionary known as the Pearl in the Palm, and of excavated texts like the Tangut translation of the Lotus Sutra.
