Ideogrammic compound (會意／会意) : semantic 木 (“tree”) + semantic 人 (“a person”). On bronze inscription, a foot 夂 was added at the bottom of the character. Later, the two components on top were highly compressed and stylized into 圥 (with a variant 𡴆). Its original meaning was perhaps "to climb; to surpass".
