khitan small script character-18bd3

Khitan Small Script Character 18BD3

212/471

𘯓 belongs to Khitan Small Script, a system the Khitan people in northern China used to write their language. Yelü Diela, the Liao ruler's brother, created it around 925 from Chinese character models; Uyghur script is cited as inspiration, though their forms look different. Alongside Khitan Large Script, it served official records, continued under Jin rule, and influenced Jurchen writing. Word and sound signs mean this glyph's role needs context.

Why does 𘯓 show as a box on some devices?

It is recent: Unicode added it in version 13.0 (2020), and phones and computers whose fonts are older than that have nothing to draw it with. The character itself is still correct and copies correctly.
