On the assumption that this fragment is parallel to IGCyr110100 and others found together, a restoration was proposed by Marengo. For the second character, she also considered reading a qoppa, the small oblique stroke below being then accidental. However this seems less plausible than a rho because we have here a vertical stroke with a loop appended at right; for a similar rho, see IGCyr003800.

For the mu following a separation mark, the pronoun με seems very plausible if followed by the verb of dedication; the beginning of a personal name, given as another possibility, seems improbable, for fathers' names are not given in such archaic dedications.
