tangut ideograph-172ba

Tangut character 172BA

𗊺 is a Tangut character; its Unicode label identifies the code point, not its Tangut reading or meaning. Tangut is a distinct script influenced by Chinese writing, used for the Tangut language and for Western Xia records, Buddhist texts, and translations. An official document dates to 1072; an inscription from 1502 shows Tangut writing continued after Western Xia fell in 1227. A Tangut-capable font may be needed to display it.

Why does 𗊺 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.
