Although Dom in his kindness pointed me as the "right" person, I don't have much to add to his concrete translation. Some of these Caucasian-Tartar words and names are totally foreign to me

- 1st "cartouche" (up) a word unknown in Arabic, follow by
"ASLI AL" either "original"

- 2nd "cartouche" "TALY KEL AMEL" the 2 last words ... no meaning in Arabic
"AMEL" either "Made"

- 3rd "cartouche" interjection "ALI YA"
"YA ALI" either "Hi Ali"

pretty sure that "Zefir" could be the right person to translate those 3 cartouches
