About the font:

Have you ever tried to read Greek lettering (like the name of a fraternity)
pronouncing each letter like the Latin letter it looks like instead of how the
Greek letter is supposed to be pronounced? That is what this font is based on.
I took all the Greek letters and matched them up with the Latin alphabet
letters they look like. Delta, for instance, shows up as an A. I threw out
all the Greek letters that didn't look like anything and filled in the
remaining characters with the regular Latin alphabet. The result is that you
can type out a phrase and it will look like Greek lettering while being
perfectly readable English.

I called the font Ancient Geek because it's not quite Ancient Greek. Get it?
Ha Ha. If you like this font take a gander at Rushin', my font based on
Cyrillic.
