U+573C "圼" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+573C "圼" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and ancient Chinese character that combines the radical for "earth" or "ground" (土) with a phonetic component, and its historical meanings are not widely documented in modern dictionaries, though it is believed to appear in classical texts or as a variant form within the broader set of East Asian ideographs used for writing literary Chinese and Korean Hanja. This character is included in the Unicode standard primarily to support the encoding of historical, specialized, or obscure symbols that are essential for preserving the full textual heritage of East Asian scripts, even though it may have limited practical use in contemporary language.
