Sampi (Upper case Template:Polytonic, lower case Template:Polytonic) is an obsolete letter of the Greek alphabet and has a numeric value of 900. It may derive from the older letter san. The name "sampi" seems to come from [o]sàn pî: "like pi." Another name formerly used for this archaic letter was Disigma because of the phoneme it represented, a Template:IPA or Template:IPA.
