Transliteration
l kf----y bn ----fn h- bkrt wbḏ----
Translation
By Kf----y son of ----fn is [the drawing of] the young she-camel wbḏ----

Interpretation

Commentary
There is hammering between the f and y and there is room for one letter which might be a r. Some more hammering is covering the first letter of the second name and the last part of the inscription. After the ḏ there is probably room for one letter and then the fork of the last letter is visible and it might be the remains of a ʾ, h, or ṣ. There is a drawing of three camels claimed by this inscription and KRS 750.
