I'll stick with the premise that it's Anatolian.
Anatolian
1) Hittite (nesili), attested from ca. 1900 BC to 1100 BC, official language of the Hittite Empire
2) Luwian (luwili), a close relative of Hittite spoken in adjoinging regions sometimes under Hittite control
Cuneiform Luwian, glosses and short passages in Hittite texts
3) Hieroglyphic Luwian on seals and in rock inscriptions
Palaic, spoken in north-central Anatolia, extinct around the 13th century BC, known only fragmentarily from quoted prayers in Hittite texts
4) Carian, spoken in Caria, fragmentarily attested from graffiti by Carian mercenaries in Egypt from ca. the 7th century BC, extinct ca. in the 3rd century BC.
5) Lycian, spoken in Lycia, and Lydian, spoken in Lydia, Iron Age descendants of Hittite or Luwian dialects, both extinct in ca. the 1st century BC, fragmentary.
6) Pisidian and Sidetic (Pamphylian), fragmentary.
I checked them out; and sorry, they don't match.
Carian resembled it the most and i could not find Pisidian.
On the other hand, if that last symbol would have one instead of two lines or is supposed to be a cross
then it could be anything.

On proceeding forty stadia from the city, one comes to a kind of mountain-brow; on it are numerous pyramids, the tombs of kings, of which three are noteworthy; and two of these are even numbered among the Seven Wonders of the World, for they are a stadium in height, are quadrangular in shape, and their height is a little greater than the length of each of the sides; and one of them is only a little larger than the other. High up, approximately midway between the sides, it has a movable stone, and when this is raised up there is a sloping passage to the vault.
