Antikythera Italic Font

Antikythera Italic from Iconian Fonts is a free Greek-style display font with a steep forward slant, sharply cut silhouette, and strong changes in stroke width. Wedge-shaped gaps break up its tall, compressed letterforms.

Posters are its strongest setting, especially for action films, metal concerts, and mythology-themed events. On game covers and merchandise, the sharp lightning-like cuts can connect the lettering directly with fractured ancient armor, weapons, or dark storm imagery.

Antikythera is a title font named after the Antikythera mechanism, which was found off the coast of a Greek island several decades ago. The device was a calculation instrument with engineering centuries ahead of its time. Historians describe it as the first real computer, and no device with similar functionality and engineering was seen again for several centuries. The font includes a complete Latin character set.
