These are the vertical characters in the Praenomen cartouche on his chest (no Nomen cartouche on his chest). A local ruler added a dedicatory text covering his chest in the Phoenician alphabetic script.

Only the torso remains of the statue. From the book referenced on the Scaraboid seal page, (page 284): Egypt, The World of the Pharaohs, 538 pp. (Schulz and Seidel, Eds.)..M McAnnisMmcannis 04:50, 17 December 2005 (UTC) (re-spaced, Setep,eN,Re)Mmcannis 03:07, 20 December 2005 (UTC)
