Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+8F58 "轘" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and complex Chinese character that historically refers to a brutal form of execution known as "dismemberment by chariots," associated with a torture method in ancient China where a person's limbs were tied to horse-drawn chariots and pulled apart. This ideograph is composed of the radical 車 (vehicle, chariot) and a phonetic component 寰, hinting at its etymological roots in classical texts such as the "Records of the Grand Historian." In modern usage, the character is largely obsolete and appears primarily in historical or literary contexts, reflecting its grim historical significance.
