建旟 (The second is pronounced with the fanqie 與 + 諸. The Zhouli states: "A falcon banner is a yu; regional inspectors and local cantons set up the yu." Zheng Xuan's commentary states: "It symbolizes their bravery." Guo's commentary to the Erya states: "A yu is made by flaying bird skins and feathers and mounting them atop a staff." The Shuowen states: "Formed from 'banner' [㫃] with 與 as phonetic").
