Khitan Small Script Character 18B1A

This character belongs to Khitan Small Script, created around 925 to write the Khitan language. Chinese characters shaped its forms, while Uyghur writing influenced its sound-based spelling. The script was used in Liao and Jin, chiefly in tomb inscriptions; later, Jurchens modeled their scripts on Khitan writing. Rediscovered in 1922, it remains partly deciphered as of 2026, so the Unicode label is not a translation.
