I dont think that my opinion will help you as you work with a larger set of glyphs than me (mine is only 14).
I propose to You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. as separate words των and ων and as part of other words, ignoring some spaces.
What do you think? Is there a lot of daiin and aiin following the fairly short spaces?

Perhaps you should consider that such signs were already used in old books.
See, for example, the NSA report.
The best thing, however, will be for you to read through the various comments here at Ninja.

With the template shown, no. No significant match.
But there are indications that something similar is being used with a different meaning.

I have posted this before and I do it again now, even if it is not likely to have any effect
daiin and aiin are not daiin and aiin, but d'aui and aui with a florish each as an abbr. stroke and means "dicit Auicenna" and "Avienna". It is so common an abbr. that even Cappelli has it,who has not many medical abbr.
Whih by the way is good evidence that we have a plaintext in Latin and explains e.g. the many repetitions

Have you published your Latin translation results?

I think we can say what chapters he is quoting and possibly some other authors and texts he is quoting as well
Have you published your Latin translation results?
No. my results are too full of holes yet, but I am thinking of putting up a blog or web site in the near future

P.S. To start a blog it takes 15 min
