old italic letter e

Old Italic letter E

5/39

𐌄 is the E-vowel letter used in Old Italic (ancient Italian) alphabets. These alphabets came through western Greek forms and, further back, connect to the Phoenician alphabet. Etruscan inscriptions attest this writing by the 7th century BCE; Faliscan, another language of ancient Italy, and early Latin used related alphabets. Its sound depended on each language's spelling, and fonts may show different historical shapes.

Why does 𐌄 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.
