Unicode: ancient form of the tenth of the twelve Terrestrial Branches, U+9149 酉

康熙字典文字版 【子集上】【一字部】 丣
【廣韻】與久切【集韻】以九切【正韻】云九切,𠀤音有。闔戸爲丣,日入時也。【說文】就也。八月黍成,可爲酎酒。象古文酉之形。古文酉,从丣。丣爲春門,萬物已出。酉爲秋門,萬物已入,一,閉門象也。【六書正譌】後人以此字類丣,故加酉字別之。酉,乃古酒字,象器中半水。旣以酉字爲丣,復加水旁作酒字。凡畱柳等字皆从丣,醴醪等字會意者皆从酉,二字不可溷用。

Han-De-Dict: alte Form von 酉 yǒu (10. der 12 Erdenzweige) (u.E.)
