Archaic Greek alphabets

We all know the Greek alphabet, obviously. But can you figure out these Greek letters dating from the time where many city-states had their own local variants, before the Greek alphabet took on its modern form around 400 BC? Enter the names of the letters (alpha,beta, gamma, ...)
A region or city is specified for some of the letters since the same symbol was sometimes used for different letters in different cities.
Some of these letters fell out of use and aren't in the modern Greek alphabet anymore.
