What century was the Greek question mark adopted?
The Greek question mark (ερωτηματικό) looks like a semicolon (;). It was adopted around the 8th century, appearing at roughly the same time as the Latin question mark [[1](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Question_mark)]. While the Greek and Latin question marks are similar, they are actually separate Unicode characters. The Greek question mark is encoded as U+037E [[1](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Question_mark)].
