U+18C82 "𘲂" Khitan Small Script Character-# Unicode Character

U+18C82 "𘲂" Khitan Small Script Character-# is a specific glyph from the Khitan Small Script, a historical writing system used by the Khitan people in parts of northern China during the Liao dynasty (907–1125 CE). This script, distinct from the earlier Khitan Large Script, is a largely syllabic or semi-syllabic system that has only been partially deciphered by scholars through analysis of inscribed artifacts such as memorial steles and coins. Character U+18C82 belongs to the Unicode block for Khitan Small Script (U+18B00 to U+18CFF), which was added to the Unicode Standard in 2014 to support digital preservation and study of this ancient language. While the exact phonetic or semantic value of this particular character is not yet fully confirmed, its inclusion in Unicode allows researchers and linguists to accurately represent and share Khitan text in modern computing environments.
