Tangut ideograph 17FE2

It marks an edict from Tangut imperial authority.

A Western Xia bronze pass (1038–1227) opens with 𗿢𗯼𘆝𗪊, a four-character authorization for urgent riding.

Li Yuanhao ordered Tangut writing in 1036 for government, Buddhist translation and a distinct identity from Song China. It adapted Chinese writing for Tangut; Khitan rulers' two scripts set a regional precedent about a century earlier. A manuscript from the ruined city of Khara-Khoto, probably from the 12th or early 13th century, preserves Buddhist and translated Chinese works. The Tangut language left daily use after the Mongol conquest in the 13th century.
