In English machine translation
† From Chael of Nitou (?), donkey load 1, month Mesore 28, indiction 14.
"Nitou" may be a patronymic or a place name (possibly Nitria), so "of Nitou" is uncertain. "Onike phora" means a load carried by a donkey, probably of wine or another commodity delivered to the shrine.
