The gaps in this inscription have been restored variously, to refer either to Berenike I, or (as shown here) to Berenike II.


This statue of [queen] Berenike, [the sister and] wife of king Ptolemaios [son of Ptolemaios] was dedicated by Poseidippos the garrison commander [and leader of the troops on (?) the citadel] and at Kition, and by Boïskos and the other leaders.
