Commentary

The main interest of those letters is the shape of beta, which is typically Theran and might have been scratched before the other graffito appended on the same dish, see IGCyr000500².

The right vertical stroke of pi is so short that it might perhaps be a gamma, unfortunately resulting in no better reading.
