<WL>𦣻 [shǒu] (=􁡖􁡞𩠐首) head (hairless); (!􁟲頁)  [bǎi] (=􀦊􀦉百) hundred
The Shuōwén Seal form of 𦣻(􁡖) shǒu ‘head’ depicts a person’s head (without hair); it is an abbreviated form of 首(􁡞𩠐) shǒu ‘hairy head’. The top of 𦣻(􁡖) shǒu ‘head’ is said to depict the ‘nose/nostrils’ as in 自(􀥿𦣹) zì ‘nose’ (鼻子), and the bottom is 凵(􀐄) qiǎn ‘open mouth’ or 口(􀌼𠙵) kǒu ‘jaws/mouth’ (嘴巴), cf. 𦣞(􂄖𦣝􂄗頤) yí ‘jaws/chin’. An old Shuōwén variant of 百(􀦉) bǎi ‘100’ also written 𦣻(􀦊) is conflated with 𦣻(􁡖) shǒu ‘head’ in the modern form 𦣻; cf. 𡚐(􀦒􀦑奭).
