Inscribed in neat letters on the bottom of the cup (length 1.6 cm). Writing direction and orientation are technically ambiguous, but the ductus and comparison with similar documents strongly suggests that the inscription is dextroverse and applied upside-down. The short sequence kri is most likely an abbreviation of a personal name.
