Graph parameters related to Roman military defense strategy were studied by many persons [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]. Satheesh and Sureshkumar introduced Roman labeling and Roman number of graphs [7]. In this paper, we extend this labeling to a new type of labeling called Greek labeling and a related graph parameter, called Greek Number, for a graph. The motivation for Roman and Greek labelings were discussed. Also, its properties are studied and its values for special types of graphs are explored.
