Translation
By Ḥrt son of ʾbʿ

Interpretation

Commentary
WH ignore the fact that the penultimate letter has no side stroke and is followed by a dot which is clearly intentional. /Pace/ WH the b of bn is clearly differentiated from the r of ḥrt and whatever the explanation of the rounded b above it it can hardly be a correction.
