Historical forms of the character俯
Transcribed ancient scripts L14939 L14935 L14936 L14937 L14938
References: Mostly from Richard Sears'Chinese Etymology site (authorisation), which in turn draws data from various collections of ancient forms of Chinese characters, including: Shuowen Jiezi (small seal), Jinwen Bian (bronze inscriptions), Liushutong (Liushutong characters) and Yinxu Jiaguwen Bian (oracle bone script).

In bronze inscriptions,phono-semantic compound (形聲 /形声,OC*poʔ): phonetic 府(OC*poʔ) + semantic 勹(“person bending over”). In the modern script勹 has changed to亻.

Compare perhapsBurmeseဖူး(hpu:,“to behold with reverence”).^[1]
