The Tyre Cistern inscription is a Phoenician inscription on a white marble block discovered in the castle-palace of the Old City of Tyre, Lebanon in 1885 and acquired by Peter Julius Löytved, the Danish vice-consul in Beirut. It was the first Phoenician inscription discovered in modern times from Tyre.
One side of the parallelepiped-shaped cistern contains a Phoenician inscription which is broken and includes nine incomplete lines; it has been dated on paleographic grounds to the middle of the 3rd century BCE. The cistern (water outlet) likely part of a naos; according to the inscription it was donated by a man named Adonibaal.
It is currently kept in the Louvre (AO 1441).
