Alpha Symbol

The alpha symbol is the first letter of the greek alphabet. Alpha has its roots in the Phoenician letter "aleph" and dates back to the 8th century BCE. It's the cornerstone of many modern alphabets, including Latin and Cyrillic. In ancient Greece, it was more than just a letter – it represented the concept of beginning and origin. The uppercase Alpha looks similar to our modern "A," while the lowercase form resembles a cursive "a."
