Khitan Small Script Character 18C50

𘱐 is a Khitan Small Script sign; its Unicode label isn't its reading. The script wrote the Khitan language, drew on Chinese characters, and may reflect Uyghur influence, though resemblance is slight. Tradition credits Yelü Diela around 925; a 2026 study argues the script was systematized later. The oldest dated inscription is from 1051. Used under Liao, Western Liao and Jin, it was banned by Jin in 1191; Jurchen writing adapted it.
