Interpretation

Commentary
There is a line in the middle of the first letter and it is not entirely certain whether it is part of it or extraneous. It is possible the letter should read s¹. The first letters of the second name are partly covered an abrasion and it is unclear how they should be interpreted. The first r is also uncertain.
