Kleu[...] figlia o figlio di Aiglanor ha dedicato questo monumento a Demetra Th[...] in voto.

Reynolds preferred the restoration of the epithet Θεσμοφόρος, hitherto not attested in Cyrenaica, rather than the mention θεά, which she also thought to be without parallel. In fact the latter is now known on the statue-base of the nearby temple (see IGCyr114800). If so, there would be space also for Kore's name but the whole formula seems somewhat awkward and it seems preferable to leave the question open.

Most dedications in this sanctuary were made by women, however some men also offered dedications. It is thus impossible to restore the name at line 2.
