The base character 兵 appears in oracle-bone inscriptions, early carved records on animal bones and tortoise shells. Its old shape depicts two hands holding an axe-like tool. The Kangxi Dictionary (1716), a Chinese character reference book, records 𡲍 with the sound of 兵 and cites an earlier dictionary, Five Sounds Pianhai.
