Some local dialect of Greek?

From the article it looks also like the amulet maker was unclear on the symbology.

BUMP for Palindromes...

I sure made a mess of that...I wanted to show the similarities of the symbols on the obverse, to the image I had saved of the Regents of Elam and Susa, and forgot to include the link to the blog Centurion316 posted, which is the source of the image.
