The modern Western alphabet was derived from the Greek alphabet, the central trading and cultural language of the ancient Mediterranean. Now the Greek alphabet is used often in worldwide physics, chemistry, and mathematics, and its letters name certain North American university fraternities and sororities. Upsilon is the twentieth letter of the Greek alphabet. Upsilon is also known in philosophy as 'Pythagoras' letter', or the 'Samian letter', because Pythagoras used its branching form as an emblem of the separate paths of virtue or vice.

This 66x9.5x9.5mm sturdy steel stamp is plated to reduce rust and wear. In order to better prevent rust, our stamp sets are lightly coated with oil. Simply wipe down with a dry paper towel or rag before using. Do not store in damp places.
