U+724A "牊" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
牊
U+724A "牊" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare Chinese character composed of the radical for "tablet" or "wooden strip" on the left and the character for "morning" or "dynasty" on the right, and it primarily refers to a type of writing tablet or wooden slip used in ancient China for recording official documents or literary texts. This character is not commonly used in modern Chinese but appears in historical and classical texts, where it denotes a bound set of bamboo or wooden strips used for writing before the widespread adoption of paper. Its presence in Unicode allows for the digital representation of this archaic term, preserving a small piece of East Asian writing history.
