tangut ideograph-17470

Tangut character 17470

1137/6136

𗑰 is a character in Tangut, the script used for the Tangut language and the Western Xia state. Created around 1036 for state administration and Buddhist translations, the script drew on Chinese and Khitan traditions while remaining distinct. Its earliest transmitted document dates to 1072. Tangut writing continued after Western Xia fell in 1227, with an inscription from 1502; displaying this glyph requires a Tangut-capable font.

Why does 𗑰 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.
