Interpretation

Commentary
A thinly scratched text immediately above 261 and possibly an initial attempt which failed when the author misspelt his grandfather's name. Note that the form of the s¹ is different from that of the s¹'s in 261. Although Winnett published a copy of this inscription he did not read it.
