What 𰕽 means
It is a historical form of 海, meaning “sea.” The glyph is listed as a Chu-slip form. Chu slips are handwritten texts on narrow bamboo strips from the ancient state of Chu.
The word 海 appears earlier in inscriptions cast on bronze vessels; excavated Chu texts also preserve other forms, including 𣳠. These are different glyphs used to write the same word.
