Historical forms of the character 邑
Shang	Western Zhou	Shuowen Jiezi (compiled in Han)	Liushutong (compiled in Ming)
Oracle bone script	Bronze inscriptions	Small seal script	Transcribed ancient scripts

Ideogrammic compound (會意／会意) : 囗 (“enclosure; city wall”) + 卪 (“kneeling person”). The bottom part of the radical is unrelated to 巴.

Possibly Sino-Tibetan. Schuessler (2007) proposes two possible etymologies:

• From Proto-Sino-Tibetan *Ɂip (“shelter”), whence also 葺 (OC *ʔsib, *sʰib, *zib, “thatch”). Said root is apparently allofamic with Proto-Sino-Tibetan *s-y(i/u)p (“to sleep”), whence Burmese အိပ် (ip, “to sleep”) (STEDT).
• Related to Proto-Sino-Tibetan *k-jim ~ k-jum (“house”), whence Burmese အိမ် (im), Tibetan ཁྱིམ (khyim).
