Tangut Ideograph-17AF3

2804/6136

𗫳 is a Tangut character; its Unicode label is not a translation. In 1036, Li Yuanhao ordered Tangut writing amid state-building; Khitan rulers had made scripts in the 10th century. Though visually inspired by Chinese characters, Tangut was a distinct script; it carried Buddhist scripture and translations of Chinese classics, histories, and military works. Buddhist texts survive after the Western Xia state fell in 1227. Use a font with Tangut support.

Why does 𗫳 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.
