offerings to gods
膰 centers on ritual offerings of meat to gods or spirits, specifically sacrificial flesh presented in religious ceremonies.
膰 combines the flesh radical ⺼ with 番, which likely contributes the sound. The character specifically denotes sacrificial meat offerings.
The left side ⺼ (flesh) and the right side 番 (which can suggest a ritual or order) together represent meat prepared for a sacred offering. Picture a priest arranging cuts of meat on an altar.
For ハン, imagine a hand (ハン sounds like 'hand') placing the meat offering on the altar. The hand -> ハン sound ties the act of offering to the reading.
