The Shuōwén Seal form of 井(􀷎丼) jǐng ‘wellspring’ is said to depict the nine-fold division of a parcel of land, with a wellspring in the center, surrounded by eight cultivated plots (井田 jǐngtián ‘well-field system’, cf. 耕); or, it depicts the 韓 ‘wood-framed well fence/winch’ (银牀: 井栏; 辘轳架), with a 丶 dot in the middle signifying the 瓮 earthen jar lowered into the well by rope to fetch water.
The dot is missing in the modern form.
