Regarding ϙ: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Koppa_%28letter%29
"The Unicode character encoding standard originally (since version 1.1 of
1993), had only a single codepoint for Koppa, which was marked as uppercase and
could be used either for an epigraphic or a numeral glyph, depending on font
design. A lowercase form was encoded in version 3.0 (1999)."

Regarding Ϻ: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/San_%28letter%29
"In the electronic encoding standard Unicode, a pair of uppercase and lowercase
forms of the letter was introduced in version 4.0 (2003). For this purpose, new
lowercase forms for modern typography, for which no prior typographic tradition
existed, had to be designed."

Regarding Ϸ: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sho_%28letter%29
"Ϸ was added to Unicode in version 4.0 (2003), in an uppercase and lowercase
character designed for modern typography."

Regarding Ͷ: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digamma#Pamphylian_digamma
"In some local (epichoric) alphabets, a variant glyph of the letter digamma
existed that resembled modern Cyrillic И. In one local alphabet, that of
Pamphylia, this variant form existed side by side with standard digamma as two
distinct letters. It has been surmised that in this dialect the sound /w/ may
have changed to labiodental /v/ in some environments. The F-shaped letter may
have stood for the new /v/ sound, while the special И-shaped form signified
those positions where the old /w/ sound was preserved."
