U+729A "犚" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
犚
U+729A "犚" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rarely used Chinese character that historically denotes a type of ox or bull, often with a specific connotation of being a sacrificial animal or one with a distinct coat color. In classical texts, particularly in ancient Chinese lexicons like the *Shuowen Jiezi*, it is defined as a two-year-old ox or a bull with a patterned hide, reflecting its agricultural and ritual significance in early Chinese culture. This character falls within the broader category of CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) ideographs, which are unified under the Unicode standard to support the writing systems of East Asia.
