Translation

Epeiph 11 (tomb) of Artaphan, aged 15; Antigona daughter of Nicias, Choiak 5, aged 66 (or: year 66)

Epeiph 11 Tomb of Artaphan, aged 15; Antigona daughter of Nikias, Choiak 5, aged 66 (or, Year 66)

Commentary

Line 1 is far from certain, and may conceal a personal name: perhaps Σίππας

Line 8: Choiak 5 = December 1; presumably the day of death; but CIG may well be right to interpret as L ς, ἐτῶν ς = aged 6.
