Ideogrammic compound (會意 / 会意) and phono-semantic compound (形聲 / 形声, OC *rɯŋ): semantic 阜 (“mound”) + phonetic 夌 (OC *rɯŋ, “mound; hill”). Originally written 夌.
trad. 陵 simp. # 陵 alternative forms “mound; hill; gravemound of an emperor” Compare Proto-Sino-Tibetan *m-raŋ (“high; long”), whence Burmese မြင့် (mrang., “high; tall”) (STEDT). Also compare 嶺 (OC *reŋʔ, “mountain ridge”). “to mount; to transgress; to encroach upon” The same word as 凌 (OC *rɯŋ, “to rise high; to transgress”). May be related to the etymology above (Schuessler, 2007). It is probably cognate with 馮 (OC *brɯŋ, “to cross; to mount; to wade”).

First part is likely 御(み) (mi-, honorific prefix used in relation to gods, emperors, etc.); compare 宮(みや) (miya, “shrine, temple; imperial palace; member of the imperial family, prince”), from 御(み) (mi-) + 屋(や) (ya, “house”) and 帝(みかど) (mikado, “emperor”), from 御(み) (mi-) + 門(かど) (kado, “gate”).
The derivation of the second part is uncertain; compare 捧(ささ)ぐ (sasagu), Classical Japanese form of modern 捧(ささ)げる (sasageru, “to give; to offer, to sacrifice; to dedicate, to devote”).
