U+7B70 "筰" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

筰

U+7B70 "筰" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) traditionally used in classical and modern Chinese writing, where it primarily denotes a type of bamboo cable or rope, often specifically referring to a towline used for pulling boats upstream against a current. This character is composed of the bamboo radical (⺮) and a phonetic component, reflecting its meaning tied to materials and uses from ancient Chinese river transport. While not commonly encountered in everyday modern text, it appears in historical documents, technical descriptions of traditional Chinese engineering, and poetic contexts that evoke imagery of rivers and labor. As part of the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) Unified Ideographs block, it shares a standard encoding that allows for consistent representation across digital systems.
