U+65D3 "旓" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

旓

U+65D3 "旓" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and largely obsolete Chinese character that traditionally refers to the tassel or decorative streamer attached to a flag or banner, particularly one used in ancient ceremonial or military contexts. It is composed of the radical "方" (fang, meaning "square" or "direction") combined with phonetic and semantic components that evoke the idea of a flowing or hanging ornament. While not commonly found in modern Chinese texts, this character appears in classical literature and historical records describing regalia, processions, or battle standards. Its usage is now mostly confined to specialized historical or linguistic studies.
