[b-greek] rough breathing

Modern Greek no longer makes use of the rough
breathing (h) mark. I was told that accent marks were
added by scribes much later than the first century.
Which leads me to ask if learning rough breathing
marks is critical to Koine Greek? Does not context
itself determine whether EIS is a preposition or
number?
