The text of the Parian Marble is characterized by Attic acrophonic numerals to express the number of years that elapse from 264/63 BC and to express people's ages. These numerals are encoded according to the EpiDoc guidelines: see Dates, Dating Formulae, Ages and Acrophonic numbers.
The acrophonic numbers five (𐅃) and fifty (𐅄) are encoded with their correspondent HTML entitites (𐅃
and 𐅄
) for reasons of portability, because not every font and editor can display them.
