The Tangut script was created around 1036 by imperial order under the Western Xia rulers. It served official and cultural writing.
The Wén Hǎi, a Tangut rhyming dictionary compiled in the mid-12th century, indexes 𗰫 as 56.131 in Rhyme 49, a sound-based grouping.

Questions people ask
1Why does 𗰫 show as a box on some devices?
Not every system ships a font for the Tangut block. Where none is installed, the character shows as an empty box; adding a font such as Noto fixes it. The character itself is still correct and copies correctly.
