U+037D "ͽ" Greek Small Reversed Dotted Lunate Sigma Symbol is a rare letterform variant used primarily in historical or scholarly contexts to represent a specific epigraphic or textual form of the Greek letter sigma. It belongs to the Greek and Coptic block and is part of a set of lunate sigma symbols that were used in ancient Greek handwriting and inscriptions, particularly in medieval manuscripts or as a stylistic alternative to the standard sigma. The reversed orientation and the dot distinguish it from other sigma forms, serving as a specialized notation for critical editions or linguistic studies when precise differentiation of sigma variants is required.
