Bronze-inscription place-name character

943/5762

𫯎 is used as a place-name character in ancient Chinese bronze-inscription records. The form printed today is a later regular-script rendering of the old graph, so it identifies that sign without reproducing the original strokes cast on bronze.

Text symbol

What 𫯎 means

It is recorded as a place name.

The Yin–Zhou Bronze Inscriptions Concordance indexes texts cast or carved on bronze objects from ancient China. Its entry identifies 𫯎 as a place name.

The displayed shape is a liding form: scholars rewrite an old graph in a later, familiar script so it can be cited and studied. It preserves the character identity, not the exact outline cast on the original bronze.

Why does 𫯎 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.
