What 壿 means
壿 is an old dance-related character and a variant of 蹲.
The Shijing, an early Chinese poetry collection, uses 蹲蹲舞我 in a feast poem alongside drums and dancing; that line is written with 蹲, not 壿.
Shuowen Jiezi, an early Chinese character dictionary compiled around 100 CE, describes 壿 as 士舞, a dance associated with 士, a historical social rank in China.
Classical and dictionary-facing; it carries an old, literary tone.

1Why does 壿 show as a square?
The active font may lack this glyph. 壿 is a font-drawn text character, so a missing glyph can appear as a box; a font that supports 壿 should display it.
