Humped cattle (犎牛: pronounced fēng. The Shanhaijing says: "A wild bovine of the south." The Jizhu Erya says: "The qixiang cattle presented today from Jiaozhi are these." Guo's commentary on the Erya says: "On the neck it has a bulging flesh-hump that rises up like one side of a camel's pack-saddle; native to Hepu commandery; in corrupt vulgar speech today it is called a 'peak cattle' (峯牛), which is this." The first hump character is pronounced diàn; the second is fanqie tián-jié; a phono-semantic character).
