The symbol ἀ, also known as alpha with smooth breathing, is a letter from the ancient Greek alphabet. It is pronounced as "a" in modern Greek. The smooth breathing diacritical mark above the letter indicates the absence of an initial "h" sound before the vowel.

This symbolism can be found in various mystical and philosophical teachings that highlight the role of the primal or essential in the formation of the cosmos.
The symbol ἀ has been used symbolically in both ancient and modern traditions to convey ideas related to inception, foundation, and the root of existence. It is frequently employed in sacred texts, mystical writings, and cosmological diagrams to signify the initial stages of creation or the fundamental principles underlying reality.

The Samekhi Papers
Welcome to the digital archaeology of ancient texts. Here we decode manuscripts, reveal hidden meanings, and challenge 2000 years of Biblical interpretation.
Our latest discoveries include the P47 manuscript analysis that questions the traditional 666 interpretation, the revelation that ψηφίζω means "vote" not "calculate," and the Gothic Christmas connections that change everything we thought we knew about Weihnachten.
This is legitimate Biblical archaeology using modern digital tools to uncover what ancient scribes really wrote.
