1-2, MYNFYTH, see also 873.

5, CHVLAM, see also 898.

Translation:

(Not usefully translatable)

Commentary:

Although not translatable, it is clear that the text began with names followed by patronymics, that l.3 refers to a sum of money (presumably the cost of the building), and that at least two names (Annobal and Chulum) appear in ll. 4-5
