No. Note: The band the clues are leading you to is not an obscure prog band at all.

It's original Cyrillic.

So it could be Epsilon...

Upsilon Acrux?

Omega?

I think that the name of an alphabet is Cyrillic, Andu...
 
If so, all post-USSR area is included...


We use both names for it, Slavonic and/or Cyrillic. But is the alphabet the same in all these countries, or each national language has it's own variant of the alphabet? I'm really ignorant on Cyrillic matters.
 
It's almost the same, with some slight variants.

Let's begin from the beginning. Is it an obsolete Cyrillic letter?

How can it be archaic if it's the third Alphabet of the EU (which is Cyrillic, by the way)?

Maybe it's Hittite. LOL
