What 𗧻 means
It denotes a person of the Tangut people.
Tangut, also called Xixia, was a Tibeto-Burman language, a family that includes Tibetan and Burmese. Western Xia established the Xixia script around 1036 to write it. This Tangut glyph appears in the 12th-century Homophones, a reference work. Tangut texts continued in official, private, and religious use after the state fell.

1Why does 𗧻 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.
