Translation
By Ts¹k son of {Ṯbn} is the drawing

Interpretation

Commentary
The third letter seems to have a small line protruding from its back immediately above where the arm of the t touches it. The fourth is clearly a k. Note that the bs are at 90°in relation to these letters. A letter after the b in the second name has been neatly and very effectively scratched over.
