VViews,
Thanks to the link to Knox's page.
It would be good to know the 'etymology' of the different usages. How could the symbol for 'Aries' have relevance to a marginal notation in a Spanish document, I wonder. What's the connection? Is there any connection?
What does the symbol mean in the Nahuatl mss?
Is that the same as its meaning elsewhere?
I don't think we should class those with the 'rising flame' with those which have none; it's obviously a meaningful element in the whole. And when you have the bird above it, I'd say it forms a new sort of glyph, not an "Aries plus".
Does anyone with Spanish know why that symbol was used as a sort of "N.B." sign?
