U+89E5 "觥" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+89E5 "觥" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is an ancient Chinese character representing a type of drinking vessel, specifically a large cup or goblet made from animal horn, often used in ceremonial or ritual contexts during the Shang and Zhou dynasties. In classical literature, such as the Shijing (Book of Songs), the character appears in phrases like "gong chou jiao cuo" (觥筹交错), which describes lively social gatherings where cups and betting chips are intermingled. The character is composed of the radical for "horn" (角) on the left and the phonetic component "光" on the right, reflecting its material and pronunciation. While it is rarely used in modern everyday Chinese, it remains significant in historical and literary studies, symbolizing ancient feasting practices and cultural heritage.
