Consacré(e) à la déesse [---] .
Dedicated to the goddess [---] .
Consacrata/i alla dea [---] .
The goddess is probably Demeter. The form ἱαρά, if a feminine singular, would not apply to a krater, thus it might rather be a neuter plural, applying to several objects. The two last preserved letters do no longer make sense for us.
