U+5724 "圤" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+5724 "圤" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily refers to a type of ancient ritual vessel or container, often associated with burial practices and used to hold sacrificial items in traditional ceremonies. Its radical is the "earth" or "ground" component (土), and it falls within the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) unified ideographs block, though it is rarely used in modern standard Chinese and is more commonly encountered in historical or classical texts. In Japanese, it may be read with the on'yomi reading "ho" or "boku" and has limited usage, typically appearing in scholarly or specialized contexts rather than everyday language.
