Funerary slab inside the Iglesia de San Juan in Cáceres.
Transcription (in capitals as inscribed):
SEPULTVR A DE FRANCISCO CO…
SEPULTVR = abbreviation for SEPULTURA (“tomb” or “burial”).
A DE FRANCISCO = “of Francisco …” (the name of the person buried here).
The letters CO… suggest the beginning of his surname (e.g., Francisco Co…).
At the very bottom I can faintly see TRINA (which might be part of Trinidad or a family name).
The top part shows a carved coat of arms/shield, very typical for family tomb slabs in the late medieval and early modern period. These coats of arms marked the burial place of prominent families, clergy, or nobility.
The inscription is in Latinized Spanish funerary style. The word SEPULTURA is Latin in origin, though widely used in Spanish epigraphy. Proper names (Francisco) are in Spanish.
A hybrid between Latin formula and Spanish names, very common in Iberian tombs of the 16th–18th centuries.

The letters appear carved in Latin capitals. The text is upside down in the photo, so if we rotate it, the clearer reading is:
"D[omi]NE IMPER(E) SVMVS ERITIS"
Possible transcription and expansion:
D[omi]NE = “O Lord”
IMPERE could be an abbreviation or damaged form of imperare (“to command, to rule”) or imperet (“may [he/it] rule”).
SVMVS = “we are”
ERITIS = “you will be”
This seems to be a fragment of a longer religious funerary formula, possibly something like:
“Domine, imperes… sumus… eritis”
which could have been part of a biblical paraphrase or memento mori text (reminders of death, common in tomb inscriptions).
The switch between 1st person plural (sumus: we are) and 2nd person plural (eritis: you will be) is typical of epitaphs, often conveying messages like:
“What we are, you will be” (Quod sumus, eritis).
That formula is extremely common in medieval and early modern Christian epigraphy.
The most likely intended full meaning is:
“What we are, you will be.”
(Quod sumus, eritis.)
This is a classic Latin memento mori inscription reminding the living of their mortality.
Located at Iglesia de San Juan, built between the 13th and 17th centuries, mixing Romanesque and Gothic styles, and it was associated with guilds (like the “Ovejeros” – shepherds). Inscriptions like this one are part of that heritage, marking contributions from individuals or groups.

At the top, there are crossed keys: this is the symbol of Saint Peter (San Pedro), who holds the keys to Heaven. This iconography links the stone either to a church dedicated to St. Peter or to ecclesiastical authority.
Below, the inscription:
D. I G V E L S R A N O C L R I G O
The carving is eroded, but it looks like a commemorative or donor’s inscription, probably abbreviating the name of a benefactor or cleric.

Notes:
"En ca" meaning “at the house of.” Standard Spanish would be en casa de Gil. It reflects the local speech around San Martín de Trevejo and nearby villages.
