峔 mountain-name character

3797/20992

峔 appears in the Chinese mountain name 慈峔山 near the Anhui–Jiangsu border; it does not mean “mountain” in general. The same place is also called 慈姥山 and 鼓吹山, a name linked to bamboo for Chinese xiao flutes.

Text symbol

What 峔 means

It is a place-name form, not a standalone word for “mountain.”

Chinese dictionaries call 峔 a vernacular variant of 姥 in 慈峔山, also written 慈姥山. The Longkan Shoujing, a Chinese dictionary completed in 997, gives the earliest dictionary record; the Guangyun, organized by rhyme, records the form in 1007–1008. The historical name 鼓吹山 is linked to bamboo suited to making xiao, Chinese end-blown flutes.

Historical place-name use.

Do not use 峔 alone for “mountain.”

Why does 峔 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.
