U+18BFA "𘯺" Khitan Small Script Character-# Unicode Character

U+18BFA "𘯺" Khitan Small Script Character-# is a specific encoded glyph representing one of the many logographic or syllabic signs used in the Khitan Small Script, a writing system employed by the Khitan people of the Liao Dynasty in northern China around the 10th to 12th centuries CE. This script, which remains only partially deciphered by modern scholars, was created to inscribe the now-extinct Khitan language and is distinct from the larger and more complex Khitan Large Script. The character itself, like others in its block, contributes to the small, streamlined set of over three hundred known signs that combine to form words and grammatical structures, offering researchers a vital key to understanding the history, administration, and culture of the Khitan Empire before it was absorbed by later Chinese dynasties.
