U+7961 "祡" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
祡
U+7961 "祡" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare Chinese character traditionally associated with ancient ritual practices, specifically referring to a type of wood used in ceremonial fire sacrifices to deities or ancestors. Its radical components include the "示" (altar or spirit) signifier on the left, indicating a spiritual or religious connection, and the phonetic element "此" on the right. In classical texts, it occasionally appears in descriptions of sacrificial rites, particularly in the context of burning wood as an offering. While not commonly used in modern Chinese or Japanese writing, it remains part of the Unicode standard to preserve historical and literary usage in East Asian script traditions.
