埶 (Kangxi radical 32, 土+8, 11 strokes, cangjie input 土土大弓戈 (GGKNI), four-corner 45117, composition ⿰坴丸)
Ideogrammic compound (會意 / 会意) : 坴 + 丮 (“to hold”) – to plant.
The 圥 in 坴, the left part of the character, was the result of corruption of 木. 丸, the right part of the character, evolved from 丮 (“to hold”). The original character depicted a kneeling person planting a sapling (木) into the soil (土). 埶 is the original character of 蓺 and 藝.
The character 埶 (OC *ŋeds) was also often phonetically borrowed to represent another character 勢 (OC *hŋjeds).
