It is notable that the scribe, who wrote the text with those three figures, used many abbreviations, which are used as characters in the VMs (s, r, ch, l, in, iin, iiin, as well, the combination similar to the Voynich k, and a few cross-symbols). Same region and time? ...
I wish it were that easy. I've been chasing that needle in the haystack for years, but unfortunately they wrote this form of Gothic cursive in many different areas, all over Europe, from the UK all the way to Naples, between c. 1380 and c. 1520. Same abbreviations, same tails, same ligature for "Item" (which looks like VMS gallows), same EVA-j shape for -ris, sometimes -rum, and sometimes as an end-paragraph marker. I haven't been able to pin down one specific area or scribe yet.
