tangut ideograph-176ba

Tangut character 176BA

1723/6136

𗚺 is a Tangut character in a script created around 1036 for the Tangut language spoken in Western Xia, a kingdom in northwest China. The script may look Chinese but is separate, appearing in official, private, and religious texts. It remained in use after the kingdom fell in 1227, then became obsolete by the Ming dynasty’s end. “Tangut Ideograph-176BA” is an automatically generated Unicode label, not a reading or translation.

Why does 𗚺 show as a box on some devices?

Not every system ships a font for the Tangut block. Where none is installed, the character shows as an empty box; adding a font such as Noto fixes it. The character itself is still correct and copies correctly.
