What 𗜎 means
A Tangut dictionary links it to Chinese 簽. The index records its scholarly reading in Latin letters as rjor. Chinese 簽 can mean a label or slip, or refer to signing or endorsing a document; context determines which sense fits.
Scholars also link the decision to promote Tangut writing with Tangut state identity alongside Chinese. The script remained in use after Western Xia fell; inscriptions and manuscripts pairing Tangut with other languages helped scholars decipher it.
A historical Tangut text character, not an emoji.
If 𗜎 appears as a box, the font lacks Tangut coverage; the character itself is intact.

1Why does 𗜎 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.
