Summary

Description
English: An illustration from the Encyclopaedia Biblica, a 1903 publication which is now in the public domain.

Glyph 1 for article "Text and Versions". (this is supposedly the Tetragrammaton - YHWH (Yahweh/Jehovah) - in Proto-Canaanite, although I think one of the letters is wrong)

This is close to ancient Greek in the 7th to 8th century and is not the Tetragrammaton as the first and third letters (r-l) correspond to the Hebrew characters "Waw" or "Vav".
