Apparatus
l. 1, a slant runs between the upper right serif of Ν and the left serif of Ω, perhaps cut in error since no meaning for it is apparent.
ll. 2 and 4, there may be stops between Υ and Σ, and between Α and Κ.
Translation:
[·· ? ··] Zenon [·· ? ··] Zenon [·· ? ··]
Commentary:
Possibly a list of names which might be from a genealogy. The only certain point is that the name Zenon appears twice, although we do not know its case on either occasion.
