The dedication is (?) (of the church) of St Mark. In the month of August, the 15th (day).

εἰσὶν τὰ ἐνκένια τοῦ ἁγίου Μάρκου μηνὸς Αὐγούστου ϊ´ε´

Dalman read the finals letters as TE (=305) and, assuming that the Bostran era was used in the region, dated the dedication to 410-411 CE. However, Gregg and Urman state that it is virtually certain that the final letters are an iota with a diaeresis (double dot) and an epsilon. The inscription gives evidence of a named chapel or church in Jueîzeh, but does not allow us to fix a year - or even a century - as its date of construction. The circle or wreath at the center of this inscription is empty; it is possible that a cross or other decoration was removed. Dimensions refer to the entire remainder of stone.
