Touzan 投簪 (the second character is ji + jin fan; the Yili says: 'Wearing the juebian cap and robe, pinning (zan) the skirt'; Zheng's commentary says: 'Zan means to join'; the Shuowen jiezi says: 'A hairpin for the head'; anciently written 兂, depicting a human figure; now the catalogue text writes it with the 'bamboo' radical as 簪, which is the contemporary character; it was used to avoid confusion with the character 旡).
