name of a county in Han dynasty
邽 is a rare kanji used primarily as a proper name, specifically a county name during the Han dynasty. Its standalone meaning is unclear outside of that historical context.
邽 combines 圭 (a jade tablet) with the city wall radical ⻏, suggesting a place name. The exact historical development is uncertain.
The left side 圭 looks like stacked earth, and the right side ⻏ is a city wall. Picture a county named after its earthen walls.
For ケイ, imagine a county official named Kay who stamps documents with a jade seal: Kay -> ケイ.
