[...]λοϲ Ἱππάλω [...] εξη

Translations

[? Year X, ?Hippa]los son of Hippalos

Line 1: The missing name might be Ἵππα]λος

Line 2 presumably gives the age at death. It is possible that a year sign has been lost at the end of line 1, in which case line 2 would contain a number, ?ἑξή(κοντα), sixty; but this is not a common abbreviation. An alternative abbreviation, also unusual, would be ἐ(τῶν) ξη΄, aged 68.
