tangut ideograph-179a1

Tangut character 179A1

2466/6136

𗦡 is a Tangut character; its Unicode label is a code identifier, not a translation. Around 1036, Western Xia’s first ruler established Tangut writing to record the Tangut language and mark cultural independence. It served government, private records and Buddhist texts; it remained in use under Yuan and Ming rule after Western Xia fell in 1227. Tangut is a separate script, though its forms draw on Chinese writing conventions.

Why does 𗦡 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.
