Old Form of the Jaw Character

38946/42720

𩠡 is an old form of 頤, the Chinese character for the jaw or chin; 頤 also means “to nourish.” The Eastern Han dictionary Shuowen Jiezi describes 𦣝 as a jaw pictograph, presents 頤 in seal script (an old formal style), and records a related Zhou-script form—another old writing style—using 首 (“head”). In the Yijing (“Book of Changes”), 頤 names Hexagram 27, whose theme is nourishment.

Why does 𩠡 show as a box on some devices?

Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
