That page renders fine for me in Galeon.  I think the relevant packages are:

ttf-thryomanes - A Unicode font covering Latin, Greek, Cyrillic and IPA
xfonts-efont-unicode - /efont/ Unicode fonts for X which cover various scripts
xfonts-efont-unicode-ib - /efont/ Unicode fonts for X (italic and bold)
xfonts-intl-european - International fonts for X -- European

There are indeed some bold greek letters on the page.

Peace,
