What 𘙠 means
It names an opening or hollow in the Tangut language.
Tangut is the language written in this script. A Tangut–Chinese dictionary pairs the entry with 洞, the Chinese character used here as a translation gloss, not a second spelling.
Western Xia emperor Li Yuanhao commissioned the Tangut script for state-building; it was introduced in 1036. It carried Buddhist scriptures, classic works, laws, and literature. A manuscript from Khara-Khoto probably dates to the 12th or early 13th century.

1Why does 𘙠 show as a box?
The font being used probably lacks a Tangut glyph, so it cannot draw this character. A font with Tangut coverage can display it.
