Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+589F "墟" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily refers to ruins, a deserted area, or an abandoned village or city, often conveying a sense of desolation or historical remains. It is composed of the radical for "earth" or "ground" on the left side and a phonetic component on the right, reflecting its semantic connection to places once inhabited but now empty. In classical and modern Chinese literature, this character appears in compound words like "廢墟" (ruins) or "墟里" (a rural hamlet), and it is also used in references to ancient marketplaces or settlements that have fallen into disuse. Its structure and meaning contribute to its role in expressing the passage of time and the decay of human structures.
