Unicode Version 17.0
龭
U+9FAD "龭" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) that falls under the CJK Unified Ideographs block and is primarily used in East Asian languages, particularly in classical or literary Chinese texts. It originally referred to a small shrine or niche used for housing a sacred object, such as a Buddha statue or ancestral tablet, and by extension it can denote a simple container or box. Over time, its usage has become less common in modern writing, but it is occasionally encountered in historical or religious contexts where it retains its meaning of a shrine or cabinet.
