Old Chinese

饗きょう *qʰaŋʔ
蠁 *qʰaŋʔ, *qʰaŋs
嚮 *qʰaŋʔ, *qʰaŋs
卿きょう *kʰraŋ

Ideogrammic compound (會意かいい／会意かいい) : 𠨍 (“two people facing each other”) + 皀 (“a round-mouthed food vessel”) – to feast; the original script of 饗きょう (OC *qʰaŋʔ). The sense "village" was a result of phonetic borrowing or semantic shifting.

In early writing, the character was virtually indistinguishable from 卿きょう (OC *kʰraŋ). Semantically, 卿きょう (OC *kʰraŋ, “elder; leader”) and 鄉さと (OC *qʰaŋ, “community; district; village”), likely cognates too, were both represented by the event depicted in the ideogram – 饗きょう (OC *qʰaŋʔ, “ritual feasting”), which was central to the community life (Yang, 1965).

The right half is unrelated to 郎ろう, as 良りょう in 鄉さと was derived from 皀 during the formation of the clerical script.
