On the cover, “ИЛИОН” is in Antonym, with the Latin “ILIOS” added in Bitum and the Greek “ΗΛΙΟΣ” in what appears to be a custom derivation thereof.

One of the most legendary archeological discoveries made by Heinrich Schliemann is described in this book titled Илион. Город и страна троянцев (Ilion. Gorod i strana troyantsev, English: Ilios. City and Country of the Trojans). It was made by Diana Zinchenko as a student project at Moscow Polytechnic University, using Antonym and Bitum. From Diana’s Behance page:

Excavations of Troy, its treasures and myths around this place even in 150 years are thrilling and famous among professional community and amateurs. The publication is supplemented by quotes from Homer’s Ilias, which was a key source during Schliemann’s searchings. Different number of blue lines of poem with markers on the edge of page create a dynamic rhythm on every spread.
