Glyph origin
Pictogram (象形) – a flag on a pole with a decoration on top. Today, the flag (unrelated to 人) is detached from the pole with decoration, stylized as 方. Related to 倝 but both are unrelated to 朝.
The character today appears as 𭤨 when next to another component (e.g., 旅 and 游); the top component, despite its appearance, is unrelated to 伤, 乞, and 每.
