Greek numbers were first used about 3,000 years ago in ancient Greece. The Greek numeral system, also known as Attic numerals, was developed during this time and was in use until the adoption of the Hindu-Arabic numeral system in the late Middle Ages.

Who invented the ancient greek number system?

Greek numerals are a system of representing numbers using the letters of the Greek alphabet. The first Greek number system we examine is their acrophonic system which was use in the first millennium BC. 'Acrophonic' means that the symbols for the numerals come from the first letter of the number name, so the symbol has come from an abreviation of the word which is used for the number. Here are the symbols for the numbers 5, 10, 100, 1000, 10000. No one has claimed to be the author.
