Tangut Supplement Unicode Block

The Unicode Tangut Supplement block is a character encoding block within the Unicode Standard, designed to represent the Tangut script, a historic writing system used primarily for the Tangut language in ancient China. This block was introduced in Unicode version 9.0 and includes a range of characters specifically dedicated to Tangut script, which was used during the Western Xia dynasty (1038–1227 CE) and subsequently disappeared. The Tangut Supplement block enables scholars, researchers, and cultural enthusiasts to digitally encode and study Tangut texts, facilitating the preservation and analysis of this unique script. This addition to Unicode promotes the accessibility and preservation of cultural and historical artifacts, contributing to a broader understanding of the linguistic and cultural diversity of human history.
