The article is about an analysis of the inscriptions on the obelisk of the Nubian king Atlanersa (653–643 BC). The obelisk was found in the Christian church of Dongola and part of the text has been lost. This article attempts to analyze and translate the surviving text on the four sides of the obelisk. In the inscription, all five royal titles of Atlanersa are restored. The author traces the analogies between the inscriptions on the obelisk of Piankhy (titular placement) and the inscription of Atlanersa on the stand for the sacred barque from the temple B 703 (words of Amun of Napata) and comes to the conclusion about the construction of the obelisk by order of Amun of Napata.
