Now back to page 116v. Immediately to the right of mur: Is that, or is that not, the Latin letter g?

It's doesn't say "mur". It says so nim gas (or gaf) mich. Note that the "i" has a leading serif, just as it does elsewhere on this folio.

In fractured German that can be interpreted a number of ways (there are long threads about this).


One can't really tell if it's "gas" or "gaf" (gave) because there is a scrape in the parchment that goes down through the top stem and the spot where the crossbar for the "f" would be. It could be either "s" or "f". And note that this is a medieval "s". It is called a long-s.

What on earth does so nim gas mean?

I read sō as son, a very common French word and signaling that the next word should be a noun, like mur = wall.

The bottom line is as follows: the g of gaf looks like the g of augst, the u of augst looks like the u of mur, and the r of octēbre looks like the r of mur. Thus, your arguments are unconvincing. Moreover, as I have been showing lately, there is a lot of extraneous evidence in support of the WALL
