The idea that a number never ends, is very expansive....
....and that little asterisk is very powerful!

B = house
letters of the alphabet...
It was in Phoenicia that the Egyptian hieroglyphic image of 'house' was streamlined, down to a 'letter' which merely sounded the initial sound b of the Semitic word beth, 'house'.
Here is a useful table, from Number Words and Number Symbols by Karl Menninger
The development of alphabetical writing, from the Egyptian (column 1)through the Poenician (2) to the Hebrew (3), Greek (7), Latin (11) and Germanic (12) alphabets. The Greeks gave their letter numerical values(9), and the Hebrews (5) adopted a similar pattern. Column 13 shows the numerical values assigned to the Runic characters.

SODUOK
I'm really not very good at Sudoku ~ so here is a mystery of number 9 (sorry to all you legal typists for the lack of tabbing)
1 x 9 = 9
9 x 9 = 81 and 8 + 1 = 9
9 x 9 x 9 = 729 and 7 + 2 + 9 = 18 and 1 + 8 = 9
9 x 9 x 9 x 9 = 6561 and 6 + 5 + 6 + 1 = 18 and 1 + 8 = 9
etc...etc...ad infinitum (ie. up to infinity, and no further!)
and of course
N + I + N + E = 9 also
Ha!

un-known
The prefix 'un' implies a negative or non-existent state
ie un-seen, un-usual, un-expected, un-known.
In order to get from the un-known to the known
it is necessary to pass through zero
....or is it infinity?
(sometimes, an ugly mark is really useful)
