if you bind quires 10-12 I think it works out, with the missing page(s) being the last, which would likely complete the sequence, unless that quire is a cover for the other two, and it starts with Capricorn and Aquarius, being future times, then into the star circles, (and hopefully explanations to all of it) then into the rest of the zodiac? The star circles explaining precession, maybe? Can't tell, because they are both gone, so don't know which side of the page they sit, nor whether it was a double fold out, perhaps there is a second Pisces as well as doubles of the missing pages, or pages before, after, or in between, for that matter.
I have a vague idea that it is a history of mankind being shown. Pisces is first because of the precession idea already mentioned earlier in the thread. I am hoping that's what the star circles explain.
The hypothesis is that tubs and clothing are indications of civilized society, the tubs representing architecture and the clothing indicate culture, perhaps. Something about the feet too, how deeply they were entrenched, perhaps? Maybe if the feet are showing they got knocked off them? Other way around, it indicates them setting foot, leaving their mark, finding high ground?
The ages of Pisces back through to Gemini basically cover what is known of civilized history. Perhaps that is why there are two of Aries and Taurus, there is more known about them. Notice these all have the tubs, although they start to wane in dark Taurus, which takes us to about 4,286 bce. But lo, Gemini has some too, but they are standing on them this time. Could this mean living underground, in caves, mountains, perhaps? (Or perhaps that is where the indications were found, at dig sites?) One of them is not a tub like the others but could be a cave or quarry.
The rest are all naked and without architecture, nomadic peoples? Don't know whether the missing pages would be future or far past, but likely they were more naked ones, maybe that is why someone chose that leaf to be the one to take out, maybe send to someone? more of the same?
Back to Pisces, everyone is mired in their fallen architecture and there is no culture. ha. or maybe it's an indicative of coming back to a single culture but the nomadic culture has evolved into another. maybe it says get outta there and start exploring the world around you again, your house is about to be covered in sea water, indicated by the green? and then quire 13 takes you on a tour of the known world by water.
