Tangut Ideograph 17962

2403/6136

𗥢’s Unicode label identifies the script and index; it is an identifier, not a word translation or pronunciation guide. Created around 1036 to build the Western Xia state and translate Buddhist texts, Tangut writing drew on Chinese writing and the script of the Khitan people yet remained distinct. Tangut texts from the 12th–13th centuries include Buddhist, Confucian, military, and literary works, and written material survived Western Xia’s fall in 1227.

Why does 𗥢 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.
