Medial aspiration or "interaspiration" in compounds is a documented feature of ancient Greek before occlusive voiceless consonants (κ, π, τ → χ, φ, θ) if the second word of the compound is an aspirated vowel; however, the possibility of this in all the other cases cannot be ruled out: Attic inscriptions don't indicate it but it is occasionally found. Also, Roman inscriptions show an alternation of transcription's standards: this may indeed have been a feature of Greek speech itself^[1]
