Text symbol

What 𣯲 means

The link runs from 毱 to 鞠. A dictionary compiled in 997 lists 𣯲 as an old form of 毱; 鞠 is the ball in 蹴鞠. In China's Han dynasty, cuju served as recreation and military training; in the Tang and Song dynasties, it also featured court contests and skill displays. Those dates trace the game, not the glyph's first use.
