What 𰲰 means
This character names a hidden creature linked to rain.
The Han book Huainanzi, presented in 139 BCE, uses 黑蜧 (“black” plus the alternate form 蜧) and says an ox offered at a temple is less effective at bringing rain. Shuowen Jiezi, a Chinese character dictionary, describes 蜦 as a dark creature hidden in deep water that can raise wind and rain. 蜦 pairs 虫, the creature component, with sound-bearing 侖; 𰲰 simplifies 侖 to 仑.
