IIII also known as âThe column of obstinacyâ is an incorrect form of writing number 4 in Roman numeral system.
This incorrect form can be found on clocks. The reasons for using this notation are as follows:
1. The visual balance. With I, II, III, IIII, V, VI, VII, VIII, IX, X, XI combination, you obtain three identical areas on the dial, each of them using the same kind of numerals.
2. Easier for the average un-educated civilians. Back in Ancient Times and the Middle Ages, only a small portion of the population was able to write, read. This might be a way to explain the use of IIII instead of IV.
Because of this IIII can be used to represent oneâs willing ignorance. Someone doesnât want to change their view of life because itâs easier to live in error than to change.
Someone with such mindset can be described as a fourminded.
I can only describe you as IIII (being fourminded).
