Which other manuscript contain the most Voynichese glyphs?
#35
I keep forgetting to mention that ascenders with loops in both directions (like EVA-t) were quite common in Semitic kabbalistic texts and Latin texts on magic. Some of the symbols represent the stars or the names of angels, others are talismanic symbols for averting demons, as in this example:

   

At one point I taught myself the symbols so I could read the demon-related scripts but it was a few years ago and if you don't use it, you lose it, so I would have to look up the meanings again. They can be found in both western and middle-eastern manuscripts that deal with spirits and magic.
