ἔτους ρξγ Ἀρράτα Μαγνου Ἀρέτα ἐτῶν κδ

Translations

In the year 163, Arrata daughter of Magnus. Areta aged 24.

Commentary

It appears that this refers to one woman, with two attempts at writing her name. The form commonly found at Cyrene is Ἀράτα.

The age appears to be 24, but could perhaps be 27.
