U+10168 "𐅨" Greek Acrophonic Hermionian Fifty Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+10168 "𐅨" Greek Acrophonic Hermionian Fifty is a numeral symbol from the ancient Greek acrophonic numbering system, specifically associated with the city-state of Hermione (Hermionē) in the Argolid region. It represents the value fifty and is derived from the initial letter of the Greek word for fifty, "Πεντήκοντα" (Pentēkonta), likely featuring a stylized form of the letter "Π" (Pi) with distinctive local variations. This character is part of the Ancient Greek Numbers Unicode block and was used primarily in inscriptions and financial records of the classical period, where such acrophonic systems employed the first letter of a number's name to denote its value. The Hermionian Fifty exemplifies how different Greek city-states adopted unique adaptations of the common acrophonic principle, reflecting regional numbering practices before the widespread adoption of the more familiar Milesian alphabetic numerals.
