In codex 967 of OG version of Daniel, it appears that I have run onto
either a scribal error or one that is very hard to tell.  It is found in
Daniel 3:1  Here is a portion of the passage..... NABOUODONESOR DIOIKEWN
PONO KAI CWRAS....  
  
 
In codex 88 it obviously has POLEIS instead of PONO.  But there is a
chance that it is POLIS in 967, but I have zoomed in on the scanned
image and it looks more like PONO, even though I am sure that would be
an error.  What I see as N could be the uncial L with an I too close to
it, and that it appears to be a N.  And what appears as an O could be
the uncial S that is over-marked, because the uncial S looks like the
English C.  
 
I am 85% sure that it reads PONO instead of POLIS, but I could be wrong.
I was just wondering about some other thoughts or insights.  Thank you!
