[Blog Post] Cracking a medieval code
#4
The replacement of vowels by nearby consonants was widely used, and is known as "Notae Bonifatiii".

It goes back at least to the 10th Century, but I don't know enough about the topic to be sure whether they are really related to St. Boniface, as one can read in various publications.
