U+5CAF "岯" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+5CAF "岯" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and archaic Chinese character that represents a geographical feature, specifically a type of mountain or hill with a flat top, and it is also associated with the name of an ancient place or district. Its composition combines the radical for "mountain" (山) with the phonetic component 㔻, which contributes to its pronunciation, though the character is no longer in common modern usage. In historical texts, "岯" appears in classical references to Shangshu (the Book of Documents) and other early Chinese literature, where it denotes a location in the eastern regions of ancient China. Today, it is primarily of interest to scholars of paleography, historical geography, and those studying rare Hanzi in the context of Unicode standardization for digital text encoding.
