Translation
By Tks² son of ʿṭṯ son of Fṣṣ son of Frq

Interpretation

Commentary
There is a line running from the middle of the first b through the following n and another line running from the middle of the third b which does not quite touch the following n. The latter might be an attempt to join the b and n together or else perhaps the line was drawn in order to make nonsense of this part of the text.
