In some local (''epichoric'') alphabets, a variant glyph of the letter digamma existed that resembled modern Cyrillic [[И]]: ͷ. In one local alphabet, that of [[Pamphylia]], this variant form existed side by side with standard digamma as two distinct letters. It has been surmised that in this dialect the sound {{IPAslink|w}} may have changed to labiodental {{IPAslink|v}} in some environments. The F-shaped letter may have stood for the new {{IPAslink|v}} sound, while the special И-shaped form signified those positions where the old {{IPAslink|w}}  sound was preserved.<ref>Nick Nicholas: [http://www.opoudjis.net/unicode/epigraphical.pdf Proposal to add Greek epigraphical letters to the UCS] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160807015713/http://www.opoudjis.net/unicode/epigraphical.pdf |date=2016-08-07 }}.
