שלם ומתיה ברה אתת מתיה וברה

Ossuary has inner ledge on two sides, low feet, red wash and flat lid. First two lines of inscription appear on the chest's front side; last line appears on the lid. שלם is a contraction of the name שלמציון and מתיה is a contraction of מתתיה. The husband/father of the two, sharing a name with his son, appears to be buried in a second ossuary in the same tomb.
