U+9F1B "鼛" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
鼛
U+9F1B "鼛" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and complex Chinese character that historically refers to a type of large drum used in ancient China, specifically a drum mounted on a frame and beaten to signal gatherings or labor, often associated with official or military announcements. Composed of the radical "鼓" meaning drum and the phonetic component "咎," this character appears in classical texts such as the "Book of Songs" where it evokes scenes of communal work or ritual. Today, it is seldom used in modern writing, remaining primarily a scholarly and historical artifact within the vast corpus of traditional Chinese characters.
