What 𗷮 means

It represents Chinese 王 as a family name in this list.

The Golden Guide is a verse in Tangut. Its sequence 𘑲𗷮𗕌𗤛𘅧 corresponds to the Chinese surnames 張, 王, 任, 鐘 and 季; 𗷮 is second.

Tangut writing was created in 1036 for Western Xia’s government and culture. Its characters borrowed design ideas from Chinese writing but took different forms. After Western Xia fell in 1227, Tangut Buddhist texts continued; the latest datable Tangut material is from 1502.

Why does 𗷮 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.
