U+726C "牬" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+726C "牬" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and ancient Chinese logograph that falls under the radical for "cow" or "ox" (牛) and carries the phonetic component "貝" (bei). This character, whose precise meaning has been lost or is highly obscure in modern standard Chinese, appears primarily in historical or classical texts, often functioning as a variant or lesser-used glyph for terms related to cattle or sacrificial rites. Its usage is extremely limited today, and it is not included in common vocabulary, making it a subject of interest primarily for scholars of paleography or those studying obscure Chinese character forms.
