The character 同 (6 strokes) is used in both simple and full-form texts, but in simple-form texts it is sometimes an abbrev. of the full-form character ​衕 (12 strokes), cf. ​衕.
    The Shuōwén Seal form of 同(​􁒬) tóng ‘same/together’ (a lidded copper vessel) combines ​𠔼(​􁒫) mǎo ‘cover/lid’, and ​口(​􀌼) ‘mouth’ (of a vessel; thing): things (​品) of the same class, altogether (under the same covering, consolidated in the same class).
    Compare: ​铜/​銅(​􂜴) tóng ‘copper’, formerly wr. 同 (HDZ); old graphs assoc. with 同/​銅 are sometimes said to depict a lidded copper/brass/bronze vessel.
    Older graphs associated with 同/​銅 are said to have ​凡(​􂘡) fán ‘altogether’ as the upper component (as in ​风, cf. ​炊​器) instead of ​𠔼(​􁒫) mǎo ‘cover/lid’ (HDZ).
    Compare: ​盖/​蓋(​􀉵​葢) gài; ​盍(​􀷀​𥁋​盇) hé/gài; ​去(​􀶭​㚎) qù, ​𥬔(​􀶬) qū; (all of which employ covered/lidded vessel motifs).
    Note: The component ​口 here suggests lidded ​器 vessels, a ‘product/thing’, ​品 ‘products/things’ of the same kind, ​𠔼 consolidated together.
    Compare: ​品(​􀗣) pǐn ‘many kinds/products’; ​区/​區(​􂍾) qū/ōu ‘conceal/vessel’ (stash away ​品 pǐn ‘many/assorted goods/things’).
    Compare: ​兴/​興(​􀝴​𢍯) xīng ‘rise/raise up; be aroused’, xìng ‘glad/happy’; ​衅/​釁(​􀞀) xìn ‘blood sacrifice’.
    Compare: ​爨(​􀝽) cuàn ‘prepare/cook (delicious/happy) meals’.
    “[同] Picture of a cover, the lid (cf. ​𠔼/​冃) of ​口 an opening: fit together” —Karlgren(AD).
    HDZ: 同 : tóng : (​甲​金) …​从​凡, ​不​从​𠔼…; (SW: ​合​會) ​会​合, ​聚​集; (​古) ​诸​侯​朝​见​天​子​的​六​礼​之​一, ​每​隔​十​二​年, ​诸​侯​一​齐​来​朝​见​天​子​叫 “同”; ​相同, ​一​样; ​齐​一, ​统​一; ​共, ​共​一​个; ​参​与, ​一​起​主​持, ​一同​干​某​事; ​偕同; ​和​谐, ​安​定; (​古) (​单​位) ​土​地​面​积, ​地​方​百​里; (​古) ​爵​一​类​的​酒​器; (​古) ​乐​律​的​阴​律, ​呂/​吕; (​副​词) ​共同, ​一​起; (​介​词) (​给; ​跟); (​连​词) ​和; ​通; ​童: ​光​秃​秃; ​銅; (​古​州​名); (​姓) • tòng : ​胡同=​衚​衕: ​巷, ​小​街​道
