Etymology: One of the three characters (無/无, 无, 亡) that have historically been used to represent the word "no, not any". First attested in the Warring States period; used interchangeably with 無/无 until the Tang dynasty. Readopted by the PRC in 1956. The origin of this character is unknown. Probably an ancient variant form of either 元 (yuán), 天 (tiān) or 堯/尧 (yáo). This character must not be confused with 旡.
