U+71A2 "熢" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
熢
U+71A2 "熢" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare Chinese character that historically refers to beacon fire or signal smoke, often associated with military or long distance communication in ancient China. Its composition combines the fire radical (火) with a phonetic component, and it appears in classical texts to describe the flames or smoke used for warning signals, particularly from watchtowers along border defenses. Though not commonly used in modern Chinese, the character retains cultural significance as part of the historical lexicon of warfare and early signaling systems.
