What Koen said: "Forgery" only makes sense if there's a referent; some other genuine thing that's being imitated dishonestly. It's common to handwave and say "a forgery of a herbal" but that just shifts the question to: what herbal, and why.
At least the "forgery of a 13th century Roger Bacon manuscript" theory makes sense on that front, the only problem with this theory is that it looks nothing like a manuscript from Roger Bacon.
