Evolution of the glyphe

The evolution of our modern Glyphe for 6 appears rather simple compared with the other numbers. Our 6 modern can be gone up to the Hindu Brahmans, who clockwise wrote it in a loop like the E lower-case cursive turned with 45°. Gradually, the upper part of the loop (with the lower part of the central feature) became more curved, while low loop (under the central feature) became right. The Arab S Western Ghubar removed the part of the loop under the feature. From there, the European evolution towards our 6 modern was very right and very near to a glyphe which resembled one capital letter G more.
