Sure, but Egypt as a polity was 3000 years old when Ptolemy's line ruled it. So if Ptolemy's time was ancient, what were the 3000 previous years?

That being said, would be nice to take a photo from Victorian Britain and title it with cyrillic alphabet as "l'ancienne Angleterre".

Edit: to put it otherwise, Egypt is 5k years old and Ptolemy was 2k ago. If we were speaking of USA instead, "Ptolemy" would've ruled during the early 20th century.

plus the mix of lunate sigma and classical sigma just to maximize the grating experience to those that know the alphabet.

Reminds me of how they would sometimes use Я in place of an R. Except I can't not read that as "ya". So, toys-ya-us it is
