Tangut Ideograph 17C3C

3133/6136

𗰼 is a Tangut (Xixia) character; its meaning and reconstructed pronunciation remain unidentified as of 2026. The script was created in 1036 under Western Xia emperor Li Yuanhao for state-building and probably for a Buddhist canon; it followed Khitan scripts made a century earlier and drew on Chinese writing without deriving from it. Manuscripts from the 12th or early 13th centuries preserve Buddhist, secular, and translated Chinese or Tibetan texts.

Why does 𗰼 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.
