What 𗝊 means
It means “roof beam.”
Western Xia ordered Tangut as its national script in 1036. It was used for government writing and translations, including Buddhist texts. Tangut writing continued after Western Xia fell in 1227; a known inscription dates to 1502.
The 12th-century Sea of Characters, a Tangut dictionary, analyzes 𘇭 (“to tie”) as 𗝊 (“roof beam”) plus 𘌤 (“ribbon”).

1Why does 𗝊 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.
