U+18BF9 "𘯹" Khitan Small Script Character-# Unicode Character

U+18BF9 "𘯹" Khitan Small Script Character-# is a specific glyph from the Khitan Small Script, a partially deciphered writing system used to record the Khitan language, which was spoken by the Khitan people of the Liao Dynasty in northern China and Mongolia from the 10th to the 12th centuries. This script is composed of hundreds of characters, many of which represent syllables or logograms, and scholars work to reconstruct its phonetic and semantic values through comparative study with Chinese historical records and the related Khitan Large Script. The character denoted by this code point is one of many such symbols that remain under active research, as the small script was rediscovered in the 20th century on monuments and artifacts. Its inclusion in Unicode represents a critical step for digital preservation and scholarly analysis of this extinct language and its unique orthography.
