Khitan Small Script Character 18BAA

𘮪 belongs to Khitan small script, a system mixing meaning-signs and sound-signs; its Unicode name is a code-point label, not a reading. Tradition credits Yelü Diela with the script’s 10th-century origin; a 2026 study places standardization later and dates its earliest securely dated epitaph to 1051. Chinese and Uyghur writing shaped it; it served the Liao state, marked monuments, persisted under Jin, and remained partly deciphered as of 2025.
