  The letter most similar to lambda is s, but it doesn't fit.
  But the lambda can, by the way, You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view.. But then ol is not alpha (although it sounds quite interesting).
  Of course, it would be nice to eliminate this ambiguity...

  You can always make suggestions and test them.

  Of course, thank you, but I think I'm less familiar with Greek than you are...

  Word EVA pydeey
  The single word pydeey, from page 1r (A), was one of the first I wanted to understand.
  I saw in this word (p98u9) a Slavic word пятыя – the fifth.
  Today I will check if this word could transcribe some Greek words. Not surprisingly, I found several:

  • πητύας, gen sg/ acc pl of πητύα = πῑτύα = πυτία = πυετία – curdled milk obtained from an animal’s stomach, containing (and used as) rennet;
    
  • πιδηεις – rich in springs;
    
  • πῐτυΐς – pine-seed; pine-resin;
    
  • πίτυος, gen of πίτυς – pine;
    
  • πῐθείας = πιθίας – jar-shaped comet;
    
  • Πυθίας, gen of Πυθία – Pythia, priestess of Pythian Apollo at Delphi, who uttered the responses of the oracle;
    
  • Πύθῐος, α, ον – Pythian, i.e. Delphian, epithet of Apollo; =Πυθικός, ή, όν – of or for Pytho, Pythian.
    

  At the moment I don’t know which meaning best fits the text.
