Tangut Ideograph 18694

5781/6136

𘚔 is a Tangut character from Western Xia’s script for the Tangut language. Introduced around 1036, it marked Tangut identity in state records and Buddhist and Confucian translations. Chinese writing shaped it; influence from an earlier neighboring Khitan script remains debated. Tangut writing survived Western Xia’s fall in 1227; the earliest text dates to 1072, and the last known inscription dates to 1502; Unicode names 𘚔 by number, not meaning.

Why does 𘚔 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.
