Khitan Small Script Character 18BBA

𘮺 is one character in Khitan Small Script, a system for writing Khitan; most surviving examples are stone epitaphs. Unicode gives this character a code label, not a translation; its role needs context. Traditional dating puts creation around 925; a 2026 study argues wider use came later, and the oldest securely dated inscription is from 1051. Jurchen scripts adapted Khitan models; a Jin decree ended official use in 1191.
