So we do not know WTF numbers the die represents, if it does indeed represent numbers? Joel Send a noteboard - 09/03/2013 10:15:59 PM

Unless you go back to the end of the Bronze Age and Linear B, a Greek letter is just a Greek letter. They are the same today as thousands of years ago (though sound values have changed). Koine is just a stage of the Greek language. Asking if the letters are Koine is like asking if Latin letters are Middle English.

Take your fake answer elsewhere if you're not going to play seriously. *NM* - 07/03/2013 11:48:57 PM 557 Views
*is chastened* That was the only remotely possible answer I could come up with w/o research. *MN* - 08/03/2013 04:13:44 AM 989 Views
So go do the research! It can't take as long to perform as one of your standard diatribes... *NM* - 08/03/2013 09:29:57 PM 496 Views
Tomorrow; I am running on fumes and trying to tell Demotic from demotic at the moment. - 08/03/2013 10:03:52 PM 1029 Views
Demotic is a Greek term, so capitalizing it or not really doesn't change anything. - 09/03/2013 03:13:17 PM 969 Views
Ah, I did not realize the Greek term was reserved for modern Greek; thanks. - 09/03/2013 07:11:16 PM 1063 Views
Greek letters haven't changed in about 2800 years - 09/03/2013 09:05:30 PM 983 Views
