Delta Symbol
The delta symbol is the fourth letter of the greek alphabet. Delta evolved from the Phoenician letter "dalet." Its uppercase form, a triangle, has become an iconic symbol in its own right. The lowercase delta looks like a cursive "d." In ancient Greece, delta was associated with the concept of a door or gateway, possibly due to its triangular shape resembling a door in profile.
