Tangut Ideograph-18340

4929/6136

𘍀 is a Tangut character glossed “crane,” the bird, not a bird emoji. Tangut writing was commissioned in 1036; dated texts survive by 1070/71. It served official and cultural writing, including Buddhist works and Chinese translations. Its structure drew on Chinese characters without deriving from them; Khitan neighbors had made their own scripts about a century earlier. The number in its Unicode name is an identifier, not a pronunciation.

Why does 𘍀 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.
