In ancient Greece, the concept of lucky numbers was closely tied to numerology and the belief that certain numbers held mystical or divine significance. One such number was 37, which was considered a lucky number due to its connection with the letters of the Greek alphabet.
The Greek alphabet consists of 24 letters, and when you divide 37 by 24, you get a decimal number of 1.5416666666666666667. This decimal number can be expressed as a repeating sequence of the first 4 digits (1541), which are the numerical values of the first four letters of the Greek alphabet: alpha (1), beta (2), gamma (3), and delta (4).
This association with the first four letters of the alphabet made 37 a number of some importance in ancient Greek numerology. As a result, people believed that carrying a charm with the number 37 or using it in various rituals would bring good luck and fortune.
While this belief in lucky numbers was not universal among the ancient Greeks, it was a popular belief that persisted throughout the ancient world and continues to influence various cultural practices today.
