About Greek Numerals

The Greek alphabetic numeral system assigns numerical values to letters of the Greek alphabet (αʹ=1, βʹ=2, ..., ιʹ=10, κʹ=20, ..., ρʹ=100, σʹ=200, etc.).

The keraia (ʹ) marks letters as numerals. The lower numeral sign (͵) before a letter multiplies its value by 1000 (e.g., ͵αʹ = 1000).
