# omikron
## English
### Etymology

Learned borrowing from Koine Greek ὂ μῑκρόν (ò mīkrón, “little o”).

### Noun

omikron (plural omikrons or omikra)
* Alternative form of omicron
** 1983, Christoph W[alter] Clairmont, Patrios Nomos: Public Burial in Athens during the Fifth and Fourth Centuries B.C.: The Archaeological, Epigraphic-Literary and Historical Evidence (BAR International Series; 161(ii)), part ii, Oxford, Oxfordshire: B.A.R., →ISBN, page 312:Perhaps among later additions is the name Ergotimos on (b) col.3, 1.58. In this name the omikra are taller as compared with other omikra in the list of names, but the other letters are of the same height. I am therefore not wholly convinced that we really have a later addition. It is the last name in col.3 and we cannot tell what made the engraver incise the omikra taller.
** 1991, J[ohn] Pinsent, Helena Hurt, editors, Liverpool Classical Monthly, volume 16, Liverpool, Merseyside, →ISSN, →OCLC, page 4:[W]hat follows I would explain as an unsuccessful attempt at spelling the verbal form καμομένου with the first omikron clumsily written in the gap at the top of Powell’s character 45 with the upper curve following the scratch. […] As will be seen form Powell’s copy there are other examples of awkward omikra, e.g. characters 37 and 39.
** 1995 April 3, Greek & Roman Coins (Auction; 8), Zurich: Numismatica Ars Classica, →OCLC, page 24:[U]pper l. dolphin swims anti-clockwise, necklace-pendant is vase, there are two omikra in legend and signature beneath truncation is ΦΡΥΓΙΛΛ/ΟΣ.
